Is the Verstappen bomb getting sharper? Aston offers 300 million for three years.

According to well-informed sources in the international press, the Max Verstappen case has officially gone beyond the rumor level: the greens are enticing the world champion with an incredible amount!

The timing is not coincidental, as information surfaced during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend that the Saudi crown prince wants to buy out Lawrence Stroll from his team. This wouldn't be the first time the gentleman has bought a world-class athlete for unfathomable sums...

In any case, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko are both loudly advocating for Red Bull to become competitive as soon as possible, which may be because there is a performance clause in Verstappen's contract. This can be activated around the summer months, meaning that if RB does not improve significantly, it is conceivable that the Dutchman could indeed jump to Aston Martin. One thing is for sure: financials will not be a barrier to his signing. I mean at Aston... Reports suggest $300 million, which would at least be the F1 deal of the century.
