Linked to Aston Martin in a £1b deal, Max Verstappen's team didn't deny the reported swoop for his services with a simple "that's nice".

George Russell complained about the lack of transparency surrounding fines issued for drivers in the 2024 season, and FIA single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis emphasised that, as a non-profit organisation, the money goes to the right places.

Aston Martin have denied that they are preparing a £1 billion deal to sign four-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen. Crash.net understands that a report by the Daily Mail, which suggested Aston Martin are upping their efforts to sign Red Bull's Verstappen, is wide of the mark.

Max Verstappen could be moving to Aston Martin, according to the Daily Mail, the newspaper reported as an exclusive. However, the British medium did not say when this should happen. Moreover, a spokesman for the British team strongly denied the news.
