The rumor mill has been stirred again with speculation that Max Verstappen could make a move to Aston Martin, with the British newspaper *Daily Mail* reporting that the team plans to inform potential sponsors of Verstappen’s future arrival. However, a spokesperson for the British team has strongly denied the claim.
Despite this, sources close to Verstappen’s camp have remained tight-lipped, only offering a non-committal “that’s nice” when asked for confirmation. This silence is notably different from past responses, which were typically adamant in denying any such talks.
The situation has added another layer of pressure on Red Bull Racing. Recently, Jos Verstappen hinted in an interview that it might be possible for his son to leave Red Bull after 2025, depending on how competitive the team is in the upcoming season.
If Aston Martin’s interest in Verstappen is genuine, it could be a strategic move by his camp to apply pressure on Red Bull, signaling that if the team doesn’t deliver in 2025, Aston Martin is prepared to offer the four-time world champion a lucrative deal.
This latest rumor only fuels the ongoing speculation about Verstappen’s future, with many wondering whether the allure of Aston Martin’s deep pockets, bolstered by Lawrence Stroll and Saudi sponsor Aramco, could tempt him away from Red Bull in the coming seasons.
