Ralf Schumacher: Max's move to Mercedes is risky

      Former Formula 1 driver Ralf Schumacher believes that if Max Verstappen moves to Mercedes, he will face the same difficulties that Lewis Hamilton encountered at Ferrari.

      Ralf Schumacher: "Max knows that he owes everything in his career to Red Bull, so it will be difficult for him to leave this team. On the other hand, the future is already close. New rules, new engines will soon appear, and the best power unit will probably be with Mercedes again.

      Red Bull is built around Max, just as Mercedes was built around Lewis Hamilton, so such a move is associated with a great risk. When deciding to change teams, Verstappen will have to give up all the advantages he currently has at Red Bull."
