After the internal power wars that started in the Red Bull team, there were many rumors that Max Verstappen could leave the ranks of the champions. These talks intensified when it became clear that the Dutchman’s contract, which runs until 2028, contains additional clauses that would allow him to leave the team earlier.
As the main favorite to lure Mr. Verstappen, in case he decides to leave, Mercedes, which is looking to regain its glory, is always named. In the ranks of the “Silver Arrows”, the driver would take the place of Lewis Hamilton, who will move to Ferrari. True, in some reports, Aston Martin was named as a candidate to lure Mr. Verstappen.
According to Auto Motor und Sport, Aston Martin is currently preparing a huge offer for the champion. The report states that if this step happens, the famous engineer Adrian Newey will also move to Aston Martin together with Mr. Verstappen.
It is reported that Aston Martin owner Lawrence Stroll believes he could make Verstappen a more attractive offer than Mercedes.
In that scenario, Verstappen would likely replace Fernando Alonso at Aston Martin and form a driving pair with the owner’s son, Lance Stroll.
