Formula 1, Verstappen towards Red Bull farewell? Aston Martin attempts the coup of the decade

The world of Formula 1 could be rocked by a real earthquake. Max Verstappen, four-time world champion and Red Bull’s star man, is reportedly seriously considering leaving the team at the end of the season. A resounding decision. It seemed unthinkable until a few months ago, but it is now taking shape in an increasingly tense climate within the Austrian team.

Weighing on this would be the recent off-circuit events involving team principal Christian Horner and, above all, the uncertainty related to the team’s technical future. The regulatory change planned for 2026, with a switch from Honda engines to power units produced in-house by Red Bull, does not entirely convince the Dutchman. Test results have not lived up to expectations. Max, who has already experienced difficult years in his career, does not seem willing to risk his supremacy.

In spite of a contract valid until 2028, Verstappen has exit clauses on his side that would allow him to free himself as early as the end of 2025. And while Ferrari and McLaren remain at the window, armored by agreements with their current drivers, two names are making their way to the Dutch phenomenon’s future: Mercedes and Aston Martin.

While on the one hand Toto Wolff has shown interest, he now seems to be leaning toward the young talent Kimi Antonelli. On the other, Aston Martin appears increasingly determined to get serious. The link with Honda and the possible future presence of Adrian Newey could be a very strong temptation for Verstappen, who would thus find again two pillars of his success in Red Bull. To make room for Max, one between Alonso and Lance Stroll will have to step aside. And if Daddy Stroll really wants to bring his team back to the top, the sacrifice may not be so unthinkable.

The market has just begun, but the Verstappen-Aston Martin axis could soon become the big deal of 2026.

Antonio Conte spoke in a press conference on the eve of the Serie A away match against Monza. In fact, the challenge will be staged at the U-Power Stadium in Monza on Saturday, April 19 at 6 p.m.

.

Conte began by saying, “There is still the Champions League qualification to conquer, a win would bring us closer, but we will try to bother Inter as much as possible from here to the end. In these 8 months in Naples I have understood that many things cannot be done. We must continue to feed the fans’ dream, we are doing something extraordinary for what were the premises, we are going beyond our possibilities.”

He continued, “You have not won on the road for 91 days, what do you think? The data are irrefutable, and one of them is that we are second -3 from Inter, that means we don’t even lose, the team has shown regularity. That said, we want to get back to winning on the road. Tomorrow it will be Rafa Marin’s turn.”

The Napoli coach continued: “How is Buongiorno? We are monitoring, we do not want to put dates, it is a delicate situation in defense, we hope he can recover as soon as possible, for tomorrow however zero alibi. Congratulations to Inter for passing the round, there was no need for this match to see its strength, this reinforces more our path, Italian soccer in recent years has always been respected in Europe, there is consistency.”

He then concluded, “Matches have to be played. When I was 16, Lecceretrocesso won with Roma and cost them the Scudetto. Games must be taken, we must stay with our antennae straight. Di Lorenzo got off to a rocket start, I expect more goals from him because he has the ability, hoping it will bode well as it did with McTominay.”

Juventus, good news from the infirmary: Bremer returns to running

Juventus can finally smile: Gleison Bremer has made his return to the training field, a long-awaited sign that rekindles the hopes of Juventus fans. After six months of enforced stoppage due to a ruptured cruciate ligament, which occurred during the ill-fated Champions League match against Leipzig last October 2, the Brazilian defender has resumed running at Continassa.

The injury, which kept him out of the spotlight for much of the season, was a blow to Tudor’s team. Bremer, last season, had established himself as one of the leaders of the Juventus rearguard, thanks to solid performances, an imposing physical presence and quiet but effective leadership. His absence has weighed on the performance of the Bianconeri defense, which has struggled to maintain the same solidity without one of its key elements.

His return to the field, even if only for the first individual runs, represents a milestone on the road to recovery and instills optimism in the Juventus environment. It is not yet a return to the group, but the fact that Bremer has started working on the field is a clear sign of progress.

The Brazilian defender’s return is expected, however, not before the Club World Cup, which will see Juventus involved from Sat. June 14 to Sunday, July 13.
