Mercedes are willing to pay 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen’s extortionate F1 salary as they look to replace 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton for 2025.

According to reputable German publication , the finances it would take to sꦍign Verstappen have been “approved” by Mercedes internally.

They would be prepared to wait - even if it means missing out on signing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz or 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso.

Alonso has now recom༺ཧmitted himself to Aston Martin by penning a long-term contract.

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has publ🎃icly made clear that he would love to sign Verstappen for 2025.

Wolff’s desire to sign Verstappen was ignited by the🅺 drama stemming from the drama surrounding Christian Horner at Red 🎀Bull.

Reports of a🅠n internal struggle or ‘civil war’ led to speculation that Verstappen might decide to jump ship, particularly if Helmut Marko is ousted.

Verstappen currentꩵly has a contract until the end of 2028 but would be allowed to leave Red Bull if Marko left his role within the team.

As a result, Mercedes are on standby to sign the reignin🌟g world ಞchampion.

Mercedes’ on-track p💃erformance makes a move for Verstappen less realistic, and relies on Red Bull combusting internally.

The Brackley-base🔜d outfit are repo♉rtedly willing to pay $55 million base salary and any bonuses on top of that.

Mercedes would also be willing to hand Verstappen a long term ambassadorial role, ensuring Verstappen would be looked aft🅺er once he called time on his F1 career.

Asto🐬n Martin remain a factor, with Lawrence S🍎troll keen on luring Adrian Newey away from Red Bull as “bait” for Verstappen.

Stroll has been prepared to spend big at Asto💟n Martin and the signing of Newey would only make them more appealing.

Honda will supply Aston Martin with engines from 2026 - anot𒆙her factor that could tempt Verstappen given his success with Red Bull has been aided by the Japanese manufacturer. ও;
