Leaving F1 technical rules unchanged for a longer period will help rivals catch up to Red Bull, according to Verstappen.
As with previous eras of dominance, such as Mercedes' unstoppable streak at the start of the turbo hybrid era, critics have suggested that Red Bull's supremacy is bad for F1, just as it is trying to capitalise on its recent popularity boom with a new but potentially fleeting audience.
"We've always seen this and Formula 1, it's nothing new," Verstappen said ahead of this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix. "But you have the odd year or maybe two years where there are two teams fighting, maybe potentially a third team, but overall, when you look back at the 80s, the 90s, the 2000s and early 2010 all the way till 2020, it's been pure dominance of certain teams."
