(Not so) A shocking statement has been made by McLaren boss Zak Brown who believes Max Verstappen is spending his final year with Red Bull Racing. The boss of Lando Norris and co also made a surprising prophecy...
In fact, according to Brown, Verstappen could build a new career not with the often mentioned Aston Martin, but in another team:
“I think this will be his last year with Red Bull, and I would also bet on where he will continue: at Mercedes! I know a lot of people are also talking about Aston Martin, especially since Adrian Newey went there. But Adrian will need time to build the organizational culture and the team around him, so that he can emerge as a title contender. Max doesn’t like to wait… That’s why I think Mercedes will be his final choice. And it would actually be a completely logical step. Mercedes is the most successful team of the last decade, which struggled last year, but still won four races and is improving. They are well prepared for the 2026 regulation changes, we know that Toto Wolff is also very interested in Max, and also both their drivers have expiring contracts…” - teased the Verstappen bombshell Zak Brown.
