Mercedes Not Interested in Verstappen, Says Williams’ Vowles

In a shocking twist of events, Williams team principal James Vowles has made a bold statement, suggesting that Mercedes is not the ideal landing spot for Max Verstappen if he decides to part ways with Red Bull at the end of this season.

The Formula 1 world has been abuzz with speculations about Verstappen’s future, with Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko hinting at potential performance clauses that could pave the way for the Dutchman to seek opportunities elsewhere. While Aston Martin has been rumored to be eyeing Verstappen with a lucrative offer, Mercedes had also shown interest in him last year, keeping fans on their toes about the driver lineup for 2026.

Vowles, a former Mercedes motorsport strategy director, poured cold water on the idea of Verstappen joining Mercedes, especially alongside George Russell. He emphasized the importance of nurturing talent within the team, highlighting the progress of young driver Kimi Antonelli and Russell’s consistent performance.

Despite acknowledging Verstappen’s exceptional skills and jaw-dropping performances, Vowles pointed out the potential drawbacks that come with signing the talented driver. He praised Mercedes’ current driver lineup for their synergy and performance near the peak of the car’s capabilities, suggesting that Verstappen might not fit into their existing culture.

Verstappen’s manager, Raymond Vermeulen, was reportedly seen in discussions with Alpine team principal Ollie Oakes during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend. However, Verstappen himself dismissed the ongoing speculations about his future, indicating that he is focused on his racing rather than the rumors surrounding his next move.

As the Formula 1 season unfolds, the saga of Verstappen’s future continues to captivate fans and experts alike, with the driver’s next destination remaining uncertain amidst the swirling rumors and conjectures in the paddock.
