Max Verstappen – $42.5M

Max Verstappen was born to a family that was invested in motorsports. His father is a Dutch former “Formula One” driver, whereas his mother was a kart racer. Even though Verstappen was born in Belgium, he competes for “Red Bull Racing” in “Formula One” under the Dutch flag. Perhaps he wants to take right after his father.

Verstappen is yet to win a championship, but he has already secured 17 career wins in 133 starts. He finished third in the 2020 season and earned millions in bonus payments. His annual earnings of $42.5 million are impressive, and he still has a long way to go in his career.
