Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs At the same time as the N24, Toto Wolff's deputy Bradley Lord went on a German channel and tried to retire the Max Verstappen story (arguably Toto's successor-in-training). He said Max's anger about the 2026 regulations is fading because Red Bull's getting better. Problem is that, Max himself said the opposite back around Miami... that doesn't happen by accident. So why did the comms guy do it now? And what's actually being closed here? Let's talk about that. I think Mercedes want the Max story BURIED. #f1 #formula1 #f12026 #maxverstappen #bradleylord #mercedes #totowolff #redbull #canadiangp #kimiantonelli #formulaone #f1news #f1politics #f1drama #f1gossip Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Mercedes Just Walked Away From Max Verstappen https://youtu.be/n8JxDGtPZdY Hosted on Acast.
