Lewis Hamilton has firmly rejected speculation linking Max Verstappen to a potential move to Mercedes. The rumors, which have been circulating in the Formula 1 world, were brought up during an interview with Hamilton in Las Vegas ahead of the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
When questioned about the possibility of Verstappen joining the Silver Arrows, Hamilton dismissed the theory as unfounded, stating that it was simply speculation with no basis in reality. Despite Verstappen’s dominant performance with Red Bull in recent years, Hamilton made it clear that the current focus should remain on the existing team dynamics rather than rumors of driver changes.
Verstappen, who has long been seen as one of the brightest stars in F1, has repeatedly expressed his commitment to Red Bull, where he has enjoyed a series of successful seasons. Meanwhile, Mercedes is working on securing its own future with Hamilton, while also looking toward its development of the next generation of drivers.
Hamilton’s comments come at a time when the F1 world is buzzing with potential driver changes and team reshuffles, but he remains focused on his goals with Mercedes for the upcoming season.
