Max Verstappen has finally broken his silence over a potential move to Formula 1 rivals Mercedes after it emerged that Toto Wolff’s side were willing to offer him big money to move from Red Bull in order to replace the outgoing Lewis Hamilton.
The Dutchman has since, however, reinforced the fact that he will stay at Red Bull for the coming seasons, despite lucrative offers from Mercedes after Hamilton’s big move to Ferrari for the 2025 season and beyond.

Responding to claims that he would take the profitable offer from Mercedes honcho Wolff, Verstappen said: “My future is within Red Bull at the moment. Even if there was an offer of £150m, money is not going to be the differentiator for me to go somewhere. I am happy with what I earn already.
“If I knew I was driving for fifth or sixth, I’d get quite grumpy. Everyone knows it is about performance — and Toto knows that. I believe in the project and everybody involved, but in sport and in life you don’t know about the future.”
Verstappen is currently the highest-paid driver on the grid, as well as the most successful, with a base salary of £45 million. For comparison, his teammate Sergio Perez’s salary is £11 million, showing the Dutchman’s value in the eyes of Red Bull.
