According to well-informed correspondents of the international press, the Max Verstappen affair has officially passed the rumor stage: the Greens are luring the world champion with an incredible sum!
The timing is no coincidence, as during the Saudi Grand Prix weekend, reports emerged that the Saudi Crown Prince was interested in buying Lawrence Stroll from his team. This gentleman is no stranger to purchasing world-renowned athletes for unimaginable sums...
In any case, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko are also loudly advocating for Red Bull to become more competitive as soon as possible, which may be due to the fact that there is a performance clause in Verstappen's contract. This could be activated around the summer months, meaning that if RB doesn't improve significantly, it's conceivable that the Dutchman will indeed make the leap to Aston Martin. One thing is certain: financial considerations will not be an obstacle to his transfer. Well, to Aston... Rumors are talking about $300 million, which would be at least the F1 deal of the century.
