According to the always well-informed colleagues of the international press, the Max Verstappen case has officially gone beyond the level of gossip: the Greens are tempting the world champion with an incredible amount!
The timing is no coincidence, as during the weekend of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, information emerged that the Saudi Crown Prince wanted to buy Lawrence Stroll out of his team. This wouldn't be the first time the gentleman has bought a world-class athlete for an unfathomable sum...
In any case, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko are both loudly calling for Red Bull to become more competitive as soon as possible, which could be because Verstappen has a performance clause in his contract. This could be activated around the summer months, which means that if RB doesn't improve significantly, it is conceivable that the Dutchman will really jump to Aston Martin. One thing is for sure: finances will not be an obstacle to signing him. At Aston, that is... The news is about $300 million, which would be the F1 deal of the century at the very least.
