Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs The Daily Mail broke a story claiming Verstappen held secret talks with McLaren about a move as early as 2027...but his manager didn't leave it at a flat no.

Also, 3 key pillars of the operation that won 21 out of 22 races in 2023 are headed or are already at McLaren's base in Woking...which to me suggests the battle for third in the 2026 F1 season will have real consequences for Verstappen's future.
