Honda Racing congratulates Verstappen for winning 4th consecutive F1 Driver’s World Championship title

MANILA: Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) — the Motorsport subsidiary of Honda Motor Company — congratulated Max Verstappen for winning his fourth consecutive Formula 1 Driver’s World Championship title.

Considered the current dominant driver in Formula 1, the Belgian-Dutch racer garnered the highest points in the 2024 season using Oracle Red Bull Racing’s RB20 — the brainchild of British Formula 1 engineer Andria Newey.

The said formula car is powered by HRC’s RBPTH002 power unit (PU).

On top of manufacturing and supplying PU components (except for the energy storage system) to Red Bull Powertrains and supporting the operations of the PUs throughout the season, HRC also provides technical support and cooperates in various marketing activities with the United Kingdom-headquartered Formula 1 race outfit.

“Max, congratulations on your fourth consecutive Drivers’ Championship! It has been five years since your first victory with the Honda power unit at the 2019 Austrian Grand Prix. On top of your ‘fast’ and ‘strong’ driver capability, you have certainly added ‘toughness’ that turns critical situations into opportunities,” HRC President Koji Watanabe said in a press release.

“The remarkable achievement of winning a race at the São Paulo Grand Prix from the 17th grid truly endorses your development. Honda and HRC are proud to be able to support your fourth consecutive title, and HRC will continue to be dedicated to providing support to you, Max, and both the Oracle Red Bull Racing and Visa Cash App RB Formula One Team while aiming at even greater heights in the future,” he added.
