Toto Wolff has accepted Max Verstappen will not be joining Mercedes in 2025 but says he retains an interest in signing the Red Bull driver in 2026 following summer talks with the Dutchman’s camp.
Mercedes team principal Wolff has publicly courted world champion Verstappen throughout the first half of the season following Lewis Hamilton’s decision to depart for Ferrari next year.
As the season resumes with the Dutch Grand Prix this weekend, Wolff said he held discussions with Verstappen’s manager Raymond Vermeulen and father Jos during the summer break.
