George Russell has joined the discussion regarding Verstappen’s future and a possible move to Mercedes. It’s a tantalising prospect, even the British driver admitted when speaking to PA this week:
Why wouldn’t they want to sign Max? It’s totally understandable. He’s the best at the moment. He’s a four-time world champion. That’s not anything against me or Kimi [Antonelli]. There’s two drivers for every team and he is one person. So that doesn’t concern me one bit because the performance is my currency and right now I think I am performing as good as anyone on this grid.
