Verstappen in a Ferrari, or Hamilton or Leclerc or Alonso in the Red Bull, or Newey (and Verstappen?) going to Mercedes, pick any promising permutation, no, no and no, would not be as dominant. Victorious ? Perhaps. Dominant ? No. We’re witnessing the stuff of legend. Enjoy it. It’s coming to an end soon. |

You have to ask yourself with MAX's main aim of hauling in wins would he really want to go to a team like Merc who have an appalling car now and with the senior techs they have lost to teams like RBR it is hard to imagine an instant turn around or indeed longer term if hypothetically MAX did go to Merc.
He has said that Merc has lots of money, fine, but so do Red Bull and winning nearly all the time so don't you think MV would want some reassurance or proof that Merc would even be competitive with a supposedly better PU/hybrid starting in '26 and a chassis that can't be changed with a magic wand. A nice looking cake is for nothing if the filling is sour. |

With Max's desire to go GT3 endurance racing, 150m euros helps...a good start for him to have his own team.

Horner taking a sabatical for the rest of the season to think things over, would be a good start.

Getting Sainz to fill the vacated Mercedes seat would cost Mercedes only a fraction of what they are prepared to put on the table for Verstappen. Hence, even if Verstappen would decide to stay at RBR, it shows the exceptionally high esteem of the powers that be at Mercedes for Verstappen's F1 racing skills and of his potential to achieve top results with a Mercedes car. Also, if Verstappen drives for Mercedes, he cannot win for Red Bull Racing anymore (WDC/WCC). So that'd be Mercedes hitting two birds with one stone.
