Toto Wolff has revealed his four-man shortlist to replace Lewis Hamilton in 2025.
Even though Verstappen is contracted at Red Bull until the end of 2028, the Dutchman could be tempted to jump ship before then.
“It’s the kind of relationship that needs to happen at a certain stage. But we don’t know when,” Wolff said of Verstappen. “I think we’ve got to look at ourselves and what is it we can do with this car. Then it becomes much easier, whoever drives the second car, it’s become much easier for George because he has the potential of being a World Champion and so much more.
