Former F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya has predicted 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen will receive an “offer he can’t refus﷽e” from Aston M💃artin.

Reigning world champion Verstappen’s future remains a hot topic which has sparked debate in the F1 paddock despite him being contracted to168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Red Bull until the endꦜ of 2028, and having rei🌊terated his commitment to the team.

In January, the Daily Mail reported that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aston Martin were willing to offe🐻r Verstappen an astronomical deal worth $1 billion over the rest of his career as part of a bid to lure him away from Red Bull.

Although the report was immediately denied by Aston Maꦰrtin, the team are understood to want to sign Verstappen and reunite the Dutchman with legendary designer Adrian Newey, who joined from Red Bull.

Seven-time grand prix winner Montoya reckons Ve✱rstappen leaving Red Bul𒐪l for Aston Martin is an inevitable outcome.

“I think ♈Max will get an offer he can’t refuse fro🍌m Aston Martin,” Montoya told .

“He might give Red 🍌Bull a chance for a year 🀅and a chance for Adrian to start figuring it out. Adrian can’t do that immediately. It's a new whole group and everyone needs to start working together.

“Are they going to be better than where they are next year? For sure. But I don♔'t think they're going to start winning a string of r෴aces.

“But if Red Bull struggles in year one, then it wouldn't surprise me if by race three Max has alrꦬeady signed with somebody elღse.

“If I was ♋Max, I would go to Aston. Mercedes would be cool too, but Aston would be the logical choice having Adrian and Hinda. Everything he has won with is there.”

Verstappen joining Aston Martin would end Alonso’s career

Aston Martin currently have168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Fernando Alonso and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll, the son of the team’s billi𝓡onaire owner Lawrence, unꦉder contract for 2026.

Montoya is convinced that if Aston Martin succes𝓰sfully signed Verstappen, that would spell the end of Alonso’s time🏅 in F1.

The two-time world champion, who turns 44 in July, would be the driver to make way, accordin෴g to Montoya.

“Ifꦕ Verstappen joined Aston Martin, Fernando Alonso will retire and b🔯ecome an ambassador for life for the company,” the Colombian continued.

“Fernando would be pissed off to a point, but it's the right choice. I🌱f you take Lance out of the equation, then you lose Lawrence. And if you lose Lawrence, you lose everything.

“You lose Aston Martin, 🅷and then there's no Max coming. If bringing Max would🎀 mean that Lawrence would have to sacrifice Lance, that would be the wrong choice for the team.

“If they forced Lawrence to do that. I think he would say, ‘Okay, here’ the team. Over to you. Let's j𓆏ust sell the team, I'm 𝐆not interested.’”
