According to well-informed employees of the international press, the Max Verstappen affair has officially gone beyond the level of gossip: the greens are tempting the world champion with incredible sums!
The timing is no coincidence, as during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend, reports emerged that the Saudi Crown Prince would like to buy Lawrence Stroll out of his team. It would not be the first time that this gentleman has bought world-class athletes for unimaginable sums...
In any case, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko are both vocal about making Red Bull more competitive as soon as possible, which could be because Verstappen has a performance clause in his contract. It can be activated around the summer months, meaning that if RB doesn't improve significantly, there's a chance the Dutchman could really make the jump to Aston Martin. One thing we can take for granted: finances won't be an obstacle to his appointment. To be precise, at Aston... Reports are talking about $300,000 million, which would be the deal of the century in F1, at the very least.
