According to well-informed colleagues in the international press, the Max Verstappen affair has officially transcended the level of rumor: the Greens are tempting the world champion with an incredible sum!
The timing is no coincidence, as during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend, reports emerged that the Saudi Crown Prince wants to buy Lawrence Stroll from his team. This wouldn't be the first time this gentleman has bought a renowned athlete for unimaginable sums...
In any case, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko are also pushing hard for Red Bull to become more competitive as soon as possible, which could be due to a performance clause in Verstappen's contract. This could be triggered around the summer months, meaning that if Red Bull doesn't improve significantly, the Dutchman could actually escape to Aston Martin. One thing's for sure: the financial issue won't be an obstacle to his signing. I mean, at Aston... The news is talking about $300 billion, which would be, at the very least, the F1 deal of the century.
