Aston Martin F1 Team

The future of Max Verstappen has been a hot topic in the F1 paddock. Last season, Verstappen was frequently linked to the Mercedes team; after the season ended, rumors emerged that Aston Martin was planning to lure him with a total contract worth $1 billion.

German driver Sebastian Vettel made history with Red Bull, winning four consecutive F1 Drivers’ Championships from 2010 to 2013.

According to the Daily Mail, Aston Martin’s commercial and marketing director, Jefferson Slack, disclosed to potential investors that four-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen will join the team for £1 billion.

The Aston Martin F1 team announced that Andy Cowell will serve as CEO and team principal starting today, to clarify leadership responsibilities and as part of a shift towards a flatter structure.

Since winning a Grand Prix for Ferrari in 2013, Spanish driver Fernando Alonso has been seeking opportunities to return to the championship podium.
