Mercedes rejected Max Verstappen's approach for 2027, according to a report from @LeSprintEdition. The report says Verstappen was prepared to reduce his salary to $50 million but wanted a long term contract of three years. Toto Wolff refused, reportedly unwilling to commit to that kind of upheaval. Treat this one carefully. The post does not name an original outlet, so this is a single source report rather than a confirmed story. Translated from French. If Mercedes really said no to a four time champion at a discount, was that discipline or a mistake? 📸📰 via @LeSprintEdition (X) #F1 #Verstappen #Mercedes #TotoWolff
