Martin Brundle Predicts Verstappen Will Stay at Red Bull

“It's clear Max has a contract if he wants to stay at Red Bull,” the Briton explained. “I'm not convinced there are many other viable options for him. McLaren, Mercedes, and Ferrari already have their driver lineups confirmed, and those are the three strongest teams. Max is currently driving for the fourth strong team – Red Bull.”

“I'm sure he's considering other options, but that's more his manager's job,” Brundle added. “His manager should be exploring other possibilities and analyzing the driver market. There's talk that Red Bull could sign Oscar Piastri from McLaren, but that's far more complicated than it appears.”

“I think Max has already realized that anything he says can be misinterpreted. But even if he doesn't comment on the topic, the same thing happens. And clearly, he doesn't want to discuss it.”
