We are only into the first week of the F1 2024 season, and things have spiced up. The Red Bull F1 team began the season with a dominant start. On the other hand, Ferrari, Mercedes, and other competitors have shown some signs of improvement. While these have been happening, rumors are around of Max Verstappen joining Mercedes in 2025. Finally, Verstappen puts a full stop to the rumors.
Max Verstappen said:
“The intention is to stay with this team! I have no reason to leave Red Bull.”
Undoubtedly, leaving the fastest car on the grid doesn’t make any sense. Red Bull will have the fastest car on the grid until 2025. No team is closer to them, including Ferrari, Mercedes, and McLaren.
Last season, Red Bull was the fastest and won 21 Grand Prix. Similarly, they have begun this season with the perfect point next to their name. If Red Bull fails after 2025, we might see him leaving the team. But in recent times, Verstappen won’t leave Red Bull.

Even Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff said:
“The market is very interesting. For a driver, the most important thing is to be with whoever is fastest, and there is no reason now for Max Verstappen to leave Red Bull anytime soon.”
Though Jos Verstappen isn’t happy with Christian Horner, the team will try to sort out all the problems between them. Red Bull has had several toxic relationships over the years, and this is similar.
Most likely, everything will be sorted between them as things start to cool down.
