That Max Verstappen ready to fight for the title of champion, almost no one doubts it. Young Dutchman has proven over the last year that he can fight the best in Formulas 1. For this reason, it is not surprising that already now speculates about his distant future. His contract with Red Bullom it expires at the end of the year 2020. What will happen next has not yet been decided, which is in conversation for Dutch colleagues from Ziggo Sport his father also pointed out Jos. "Most importantly, we get a race car for Max to fight for the title. We will stay at next year Red Bullu, but for the 2021 season, everything is still open."
All 47-year-old he quickly adds that they are not negotiating their son’s future at the moment. “At the moment, there are no actions in terms of the future. We’re focusing on the 2020 season and then we’ll see what shows up.But one thing is certain: as an alternative to MAXU only the other two top teams come into play Mercedes in Ferrari, everything else would be a step backwards. Yes Joseph Verstappen understands very well with Toto Wolff, team leader Mercedes, and that too Austrian don’t get tired of the constant praise at the expense of the young Dutchman, leads to gossip, to be able to Max perhaps crossed to Mercedes. But young Verstappen he is also seen as a teammate in the future Charles Leclerc pri Ferrari.
"Of course, she could get along well with Charles on the same team. We both want to win, but at the same time we respect each other very much. I don't want to argue that there might not be any conflicts, but it certainly wouldn't be like Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg at Mercedes,”He explained Max. His father so he adds: “We have known Charles for a long time, because Max has been racing against him for a long time. He’s a very fast racer and I think it’s really nice because we’re going to experience a fight between Hamilton, Max and Leclerc in the years to come. This is very good for our sport."
But judging by the latest statements from the camp Ferrari, Max in the near future will not sit in red car from Maranella. Because Ferrari he is not interested in the young Dutchman at the moment, the head of the team Mattia binotto however, he explains this by saying that it would be very difficult to have on the team two top racer. Italian in doing so, recall that he was at Ferrari already when he was Michael Schumacher the undisputed number 1 on the team. Italian gives preference to the racing alliance as it currently has Mercedes. "You need a top racer who can win the title and another who can win races and score important points," so binotto for an officer Journal of Sport.
In the current situation Ferrari around Sebastian Vettl in Charles Leclerc, the question arises as to who the team actually is Lewis Hamilton and who Valtteri Bottas?
