COLOGNE, Germany – Four-time Formula 1 World Champion Max Verstappen hits the racetrack in a Mustang Dark Horse in this Ford Performance video.
The Red Bull Racing ace put the muscle car through its paces at the Circuito Tazio Nuvolari in Italy, some 70km south of Milan.

Mustang Dark Horse is one of the most track-capable Mustangs ever, powered by a naturally-aspirated 5.0-litre Coyote V8 engine – just like Ford’s Raptor T1+ that finished on the podium at Dakar Rally this month.
Ford is returning to Formula 1 in a long-term strategic partnership with Red Bull Powertrains to develop the next-gen hybrid power unit that Red Bull Racing will use from the 2026 Formula 1 season onwards.
In the meantime, Max will launch the defence of his drivers’ title at the Australian Grand Prix on March 14 – the first of 24 races featuring in the 2025 Formula 1 calendar. Red Bull Racing will reveal their 2025 Formula1 race car on February 18.
