Max Verstappen could have an easy escape from Red Bull, if he wishes to leave Milton Keynes, thanks to the 'Helmut Marko clause' in his contract...
The ‘ Helmut Marko clause’ in Max Verstappen ’s contract with Red Bull could be used as a tactic to leave the team, according to a report.
“He has a fast car, but we also have to look further to 2026, so we are letting everything come to us at the moment. We stay very calm and see what will happen.” With Verstappen admitted in Miami that he would have preferred Newey to have remained onboard, he has consistently stopped short of saying he has any intentions of leaving Red Bull but has also not firmly said that he has no intentions of departing before the end of his current deal.
Should this come to pass, Verstappen would thus follow Newey out the door of Red Bull, leaving him to pursue a new challenge elsewhere on the grid.With Newey’s departure from Red Bull the culmination of rumination over the last two years since the current regulations were introduced, the 65-year-old did admit that the off-track dramas surrounding the team this year did play a role in his decision to call time on his Red Bull tenure.
