The Formula 1 paddock just got hit with another wave of drama. Toto Wolff, never one to hold back, made a bold statement regarding Max Verstappen’s future.
In a candid chat, Wolff admitted that if Mercedes becomes “the team with the best credentials”, he could sign Max at only a fraction of the cost: “10% of what I might have paid this year”.
The kicker? He told this directly to Verstappen’s manager.
This isn’t just about numbers—it’s about power, leverage, and the future of the most dominant driver in modern F1. Imagine Verstappen in silver arrows. Imagine the rivalry, the chaos, the headlines.
The question now: is Toto playing mind games, or is this the beginning of an F1 transfer storm that could change everything?
