Verstappen may leave Red Bull mid-season, but there's one condition

Red Bull has had a weak start to the new Formula 1 season, and this could lead to the departure of the team's main star.

Details: According to The Times, the legendary Max Verstappen might leave Red Bull as early as mid-season.

The Dutch driver's contract includes a clause allowing him to terminate the agreement if he is outside the top 3 in the standings after half the season's races.

Mercedes and McLaren are closely monitoring the situation and are ready to offer Verstappen their terms.

After a disappointing Bahrain Grand Prix, where Verstappen finished only sixth, he has dropped to third place in the overall standings.

Reminder: Earlier, a Red Bull advisor expressed concern about Verstappen's future with the team.
