Max Verstappen's F1 future has been a consistent topic of discussion over the past several months.
Having been heavily linked with a move to Mercedes earlier in the year amid Red Bull's dip in form, Verstappen found himself becoming a late contender in the title fight as the team continued to develop its car.
Verstappen currently has a contract in place for the 2028 season but speculation of a performance clause existing in his contract could allow him to leave for another team early.
However, the Dutchman has also suggested he could opt to leave F1 altogether if he does not find the next cycle of regulations enjoyable.
But what do you think Verstappen's next move will be? Will he extend with Red Bull, leave for another team or walk away from the sport altogether?
