Verstappen's new season uses No. 1 representing the world champion The last No. 1 was also a Red Bull car

Car No. 1 will return to F1 in the 2022 season

A few weeks ago, Verstappen had revealed his thoughts, choosing No. 1 next season. Today, Verstappen has become a world champion, which once again strengthens his thinking.

"Yes, I'm going to use this number."

"How many times can you do that?" I don't know, maybe it's the only time in my life. It's the best number and I'm definitely going to stick it on the car. ”

The last time the team used the No. 1 was also Red Bull, who reached four consecutive titles in 2014 when he had the right to use the number. 2014 was also the first time that a permanent numbering system was introduced.

Hamilton has always disliked using Number 1 and has always used his own Number 44. Rothberg, another world champion during this period, did not use No. 1 because he won the championship and retired.

Next season we will not see Raikkonen's No. 7 and Giovinaz's No. 99. The returning Alben will continue to use the 23rd, and Zhou Guanyu decided to use the 24th.
