Hello everybody and welcome back to the P1 podcast with Matt and Tommy. Oh yeah, we're getting into something today which we've not explored for a while. There's been a lot of rumors, a lot of this, that's, maybes and everything else in between.

And we thought we'd discuss it because there was obviously quite strong rumours,

wasn't there, Tommy, where we genuinely thought, oh my God, Max Verstappen could go to Mercedes last year.

Do you remember when that all kicked off?

That was crazy.

That was crazy.

And did have some legs.

It wasn't like,

we don't tend to just jump on random rumours.

But once again,

obviously the main talking point is about Max and where he will go in 2026 and beyond.

And we've essentially got different teams that we're going to talk about that could be a potential and grade

it out of 10 as to how sure or how much of a probability we think it will be that he will end up

in that team are you ready for it Tommy your your favorite goat we're going to talk about his future

I know yeah it's surprising how the rumors have ramped up again already in the season and probably helped a little bit.

They had that really poor race in Bahrain, but then, of course, did better in Saudi, but the rumors have really like ramped up again.

So here we are.

Now, before we dive into everything, Max Verstapp, and I'm going to read out a lovely five-star review that made a smile from It's Ahmed.

Making sure to do my chore for the chore gang and leaving a review.

Predictions are some of my favourites to listen to.

I got a friend in work to start listening to P1, and we've now made a group chat with some of the other work guys, where we do the predictions using your format.

Thanks to you guys bringing us
