168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aston Martin have denied that they are preparing a £1 billion deal to sign four-time F1 world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.

ltxcn.top understands that a report by the , which suggested Aston Martin are upping their efforts to sign Re🌊d Bull's Verstappen, 🙈is wide of the mark.

Current drivers Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll are contr𒈔acted wi🔜th Aston Martin until the end of 2026.

The duo h🐎elped 🐟Aston Martin secure back-to-back fifth-place finishes in the F1 constructors’ championship.

With Adrian Newey starting work wit🍨h the team later this year - and operations now led by new team principal Andy Cowell - the Silverstone-based outfit are set up well for the future.

Talk of Verstappen jo🗹ining Aston Martin has been frequent though, particularly since the signing of Newey, and a🐠lliance with Honda as their power unit supplier for 2026.

According to the report, Aston Martin were prepared to put together a world record package worth £1bn - which would have included ma꧂king Verstappen a shareholder.

ꦐVerstap🌊pen is currently under contract at Red Bull until the end of 2028.

However, his future hasn’t bꦍeen certain ꩵamid interest from Mercedes throughout last year.

The o𓄧ff-track turmoil involving Christian Horner, combined with Red Bull slipping ba♈ck in the pecking order, led to intense speculation about Verstappen’s future.

Verstappen has insisted that Red Bull are his family, and he plans 🌄to remain loyal to them.

But, the number one priority for Verstappen is a🏅 championship-winniꦯng F1 car.

How could Aston Martin attract Verstappen?

With billionaire Lawrence Stroll running the show at Aston Martin, they hav❀e the financial capability to sign anyone.

This has been demonstrated by their pursuit and signing of Adri🐠an Newey.

Newey, who is widely regarded as F1’s greatest-ever car designer, was announced as Aston M🉐artin’s managing technical partner in September.

He will spearhead Aston Martin’s design team but, crucially, become a sharehold🔥er of the team.

According to Sky, Newey will earn a base salary of £20m a﷽t Aston Martiꦑn.

With Verstappen clearly F1’s top drꦗiver over the past four years, Aston Martin are seemi⛎ngly prepared to go all-out to sign him.

The report claims Aston Martin would offer Verstappen a deal worth £1bn across the remainder of his raci♑ng care🍨er, with a potential shareholding on the table.

Verstappen will lik🌱ely want to remain in motorsp💜ort, even if he calls time on his F1 career this decade, expressing interest in racing in the World Endurance Championship - something he could do with the British brand.

Aston Martin are alওso powered by Honda from 2026, with the Japanese manufacturer enjoying great success with Verstappen during their time ♉with Red Bull.
