Toto Wolff insists 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen ꦇrequires “time” to consider whether he will quit Red Bull.

Mercedes must find a replacement for Ferrari-bound Lewis Hamilton for next year, and a stunning new option briefly ap✃peared on the driver market in the shape of Verstappen.

The Red Bull driver’s future unexpectedly became up for⭕ debate after it was revealed that he can activate a contract🐓ual clause to leave his team, if Helmut Marko first exits.

Mercedes team principalꦉ 🌸Wolff was asked if Verstappen might go to Mercedes.

He replied to Sky Sports: “If I would know…

“Well, at the e🥂nd, Ma𝔍x is in the quickest car. This is what a driver is always going to look at.

“He’s in a fantastic place in his ꦰcareer. It’s a decision that is up to him.

“‘Is it an environment that I’d l🔯ike to change? If yes, w𝔉here would I like to go?’

“The trigger, for him maybe thinking about other options, i♓s because they have some wobbles going through𝔉 their time.

“We have to give him time to think how🅷 he wants to sort out his future, without giving it a push from our side.”

Verstappen admitted at the F1 Australian Grand Prix that it was “nice to hear” Wolff was op♐ening the door to Mercedes for him.

But Verstappen insisted: “I don’t think about any other thing becaus♔e it’s pretty fixed where I am. And꧋ that’s also where I want to be.”

🐬He is contracted to Red Bull until the end of 2028 and is already in a great position to claim a fourth F1 champions🐽hip in a row this season.

Red Bu🐲ll - who have been 🍷mired in controversy off-track all year due to the situation surrounding Christian Horner, which then engulfed Verstappen and his father - had a below-par day in Australia on Friday.

Verstappen was kept off the top of the timesheets in practic🌠e by Ferrari’s Charles Le💦clerc.
