Four-time Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen admitted that he has been in discussions with Mercedes management about a potential move.
The 27-year-old driver has been with the Bulls since 2016, winning the last four seasons of Formula 1 consecutively.
Look, of course we always talk to each other. And I'm not lying about the fact that we've sat together. But that's not a problem in itself. But in the end, I just really like where I'm sitting. I think we’ve also had very constructive conversations. I think everyone has always been very honest and open with each other. But on the other hand, I’m also very loyal to my own team.
