Where did this story even come from? Why would Max leave RB, and a guarenteed championship till 2025 and maybe beyond to go to a Mercedes who are stuggling so much? It's insane.

@@anudeepk7579 From Toto saying "Yea I mean I'd love to have Max on my team." That's literally it.

Are you his manager? Bruh you fans are weird

@@mapleleafkay9824 Weirder than delusional theorizing about a shock move away from the best team and car on the grid? Okay.

Wonder though if they know more than we know about the pu performance of the upcoming regulation changed cars and Red Bull power trains/Ford is inferior to that of other teams

Yes, dude, they've seen it all

@@chalo212 boring They have seen the exact same what viewers have seen for the past 30-60 years 😂

Daniel Ricciardo is washed up LMAO... he is just to old and needed Team Instruction to pass Tsunoda then overtaking his own teammate "on-merit"; you seems to be a Honey Badger or an Australian but you can clearly see if Ricciardo can't even overtake his own teammate on-merit;

For saying what?

@@liukin95 Max going to Mercedes

they are all "wifeys" talking over the back fence .... cant bear it

💯

or Newey!

And don’t forget F1 is a British sport run by Britons 🏎️🇬🇧 The British bias always was thick but just got a little ticker when Hamilton entered the scene and have been this thick ever since.

Lmao you people are obsessed with Brits and sky sports. Max isn’t as sick as you people. Max isn’t as short sighted as you sycophants. He knows 2026 isn’t looking pretty at RB and he wouldn’t have that clause in his contract if he “NEVER” plans on leaving.

@@JDYTC Your fault for watching sky sports. Go watch espn goofy

they are just 'farming views'. It's completely silly to think anyone would change a winning team just because some bs personal sh*tstorm. These people know exactly that what they think is absurd and pointless to even talk. But there is 0 thinks happening in F1 right now, so I guess they desperate.

You guys are crazy, he's thinking long term. 2026 likely won't be a good year for Redbull. There is a real chance he goes to Merc or Aston. Watch this space.

@@itshammertimeF1 The claim was, next year already. Not in 2026 or later. Same as now is claimed, that Newey any moment signs at Ferrari. We see.

No Darren they know it's bollox it's just something to talk about

If that's what he said they should change the title.. that's what you get when you make a CLICKBAIT!! 🙄🤡 Nobody cares for a fake interview and just click on the video to tell Crofty the truth, and again.. this wouldn't have happend if they didn't put out a clickbait!!

💯. They are pathetic

By the looks of it, 90% of fans want that too... did you hear the cheering when max retired last weekend? 🤣

@@dankron_ LOL. Max is the most popular driver in the world according to a poll last year

@@erikapple8955clearly not in Australia 😂

@dankron_ prisoners kids arent known to be smart. Australia just got the wheel last year and I heard electricity is next

They really milk these rumors, like Rockstar games, milks Grand Theft Auto 5 Online.

Ford hasn't shown anything promising jet.

​@@markvanderknoop131 they are just not showing the cards in their hand but am convinced they have a real real good one 😏

100.000%

@@markoes28 yeah that's probably why Ford is domenating the EV market worldwide.

@@markvanderknoop131wrong.. its TATA not Ford.

You could’ve said exactly the same about Lewis at Mercedes 6 months ago lol I do agree that Max won’t go to Mercedes.

Well said!!

@@justwayne4785 totally different circumstances. Merc is struggling and Lewis was at the end of his contract. Max has a good contract and unlike Lewis, is winning races which is tye ultimate goal besides the money.

@@Ogole-oye Lewis has said on multiple occasions that he wanted to end his career at Mercedes. Lewis wasn’t at the end of his contract he exercised a break, which Max is probably capable of doing, especially if Helmut leaves, then you have his dad to add to the mix. I think Max would be crazy to go anywhere but Ferrari, I hope he stays at redbull, it’s the best team for him by far. My point was, Lewis liked Mercedes, Lewis already had the one man team going on at Mercedes, Lewis had an excellent life at Mercedes, including a pretty much guaranteed ambassador role for life when he retired. Lewis has moved for financial reasons, there’s no guarantee of the best car, he’s certainly not going to be number 1 driver.

@@justwayne4785 I hear you, but here's the point, he left because his beloved Merc weren't willing to give him a multi year deal which makes sense for both parties. Lewis is getting with age so, a long term and huge deal wouldn't be sound business, as for Lewis, he understands his brand value and got the opportunity to maximize his bag, in a team that had long been hitting on him and he had interest in which is okay too. Then add in the fact that the car has been sub par of late, there really is little for him to stay. Why do I say it's different? Well Max would be walking away from at least 200million on the table. Also the team is built around him, the culture is different at RB which is to his liking. He is not a short term contract and is the highest paid at the moment on the grid. Although over the years, due to the success, Lewis is synonymous with Merc, he isn't and wasn't a one team guy, Max on the other hand has been, and has voiced that intent to that end. Now based on character, I am inclined to take Max at his word. I hear what you said about the Helmut terms, that goes without saying, but in the same breath, Max is also on record saying, this thing works when the whole band remains together, which includes CH, Adrian and the engineers, so his expressed interest tells me, he is not looking elsewhere or fishing for a contract anytime soon. And despite the tensions, Max himself said they are not at the point that would cause him to walk away.

Because he is doing what he did with Ocon and DeVries and just trying to sell Mick to the highest bidder. No way is he giving him a Mercedes F1 seat

A team cannot one sided, terminate an existing contract, without consequences.

It all depends on the 2026 engines… we all saw how Merc had the jump last time in 2014(many think that wasn’t by chance either…) It didn’t matter how good the RB was back then as they simply didn’t have enough power to compete on the majority of tracks. If it happened it could turn out to be a great move. And it’s hard to see how good this Merc can be with Ham and Rus in the car. Both are very inconsistent. Last year they were trading half second gaps in quali one week after another

Because the car will not stay this competitive.

with Riccardo current form, it will be cheap to get him, as cheap as chips. "you can only as good as your last race" therefore, he only need a couple good one at the end of 2024.

What he did not really do yet this year. Last race Yuki was quite ahead and in first race, after the team-order he did not pull away.

@@KGI_KlikoNL Honey Badger fans is just stupid like their idols... Ricciardo left RBR cos he can't beat Max in RBR and went to Renault and then McLaren (where Ricciardo didn't perform while he is the #1 driver in Renault and also McLaren) and now back in RB Cash App car; he is often beaten by Tsunoda in qualifying and also race (in Bahrain was due to TEAM-ORDER where Ricciardo over-took Tsunoda) while Tsunoda beat Ricciardo....

Ignorant comment. Yuki's been brilliant especially regarding that the RB Visa is rubbish as you say. You make zero sense, pathetic fanboy. I'ts exactly that with a soapbox, a driver can make a difference but even in a good McLaren, Ricciardo SUCKED> Now compare that to GOTE Charles Leclerc, who drove the wheels of that POS Ferrari in 2020 to make Vettel look average. DUMB DUMB Yuki is already a legend

Getting nervous for next year, are you?

@@Ed-Goldberg I’m worried about Ferraris reputation going down the toilet. Luckily they have Leclerc to score points while Lewis struggles at the back with the also rans 😂😂😂
