(Not so) Amazing statement made by McLaren boss: Zak Brown believes Max Verstappen is spending his last year at Red Bull Racing. Lando Norris' team boss also offered a surprising prediction...
It seems that Brown believes that Verstappen will not build a new career at the already well-known Aston Martin, but at another team:
"I think this will be his last season at Red Bull, and I would bet he will continue at Mercedes! I know, a lot of people are talking about Aston Martin, especially since Adrian Newey joined them. But it will take Adrian time to build the organizational culture and the team he needs to be able to rise among those fighting for the title. Max does not like to wait... That is why I think Mercedes will be his choice. And, in fact, it would be a completely logical step. Mercedes is the most successful team in the last decade, which last year had difficulties, but still won four races and is on an upward slope. They are well prepared for the regulation changes in 2026, we know that Toto Wolff is also interested in Max, and besides, the contracts of both their drivers are expiring..." - caused the bombshell Verstappen Zak Brown.
