Rumours linking Max Verstappen to Lewis Hamilton's to-be-vacated Mercedes seat refuse to go away...
While Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff said they are not actively trying to entice Max Verstappen to join, he feels some “wobbles” on the track for Red Bull could be the “trigger” for him to consider a move.
“Well at the end, Max is in the quickest car and this is what a driver is always going to look at,” said Wolff. 2026 though marks a huge reset, as new chassis and power unit regulations come into force, at which point Red Bull will become a power unit manufacturer in their own right in collaboration with Ford.
“And I think we’ve got to give him time to think how he wants to sort out his future, without giving it a push from our side.” “And what I said before also, I’m happy within the team and, of course, it’s very important that we try to keep the key players in the team for a longer period of time because that’s what goes with the performances as well.
