[The Exiled]

Da, bila je prekjučer konferencija za tisak, a Max je izgledal ko neki taoc dok su pričali da je u Red Bullu za 2026. sezonu.

Verstappen has reportedly failed to trigger an exit clause in his contract, and Marko is telling the press that the star driver is staying put. The Dutch driver could have become a free agent in 2026 if he were fourth or lower in the 2025 standings at the annual Summer break, but he left last weekend's Belgian Grand Prix up more than 25 points on current Mercedes driver George Russell. That means Verstappen cannot drop to fourth after the upcoming Hungarian GP, the last race before the now-traditional break in the F1 calendar. As a result, Verstappen can no longer trigger the only known out for the 2026 season in his current deal.
