Football prediction Max Verstappen: €150 million from Mercedes will not play a decisive role, speed is important
Verstappen said that Mercedes cannot lure him away with money alone.
Red Bull driver Max Verstappen has commented on rumors that Mercedes chief executive Toto Wolff is offering him a salary of 150 million euros a year.
Well, at the moment my future lies with Red Bull.
In the end, even suppose this is true, 150 million - money will not play a decisive role when moving somewhere. I`m already happy with my salary. Speed is important. I understand that I will be angry with myself if I end up in fifth or sixth place. Ultimately, it`s all about speed. Everyone knows this. "Toto knows it too, " said the three-time Formula 1 champion before the Miami Grand Prix.
Max also spoke about Wolff`s optimistic attitude:
I think everyone needs to remain optimistic and look at things with hope. But at the moment I can say that I want to stay on the team because I believe in the project. However, not only in sports, but in life in general, you never know what will happen in the future.
The Dutchman said that he is not thinking about switching to new technical and motor regulations in 2026:
Not yet. I don`t think about it too much at the moment. There`s a lot going on this year and I want to do well. Next season too - there are excellent chances to show myself well. In this regard, 2026 is still quite far away.
