Max Verstappen has reason to join Ferrari as F1 champion tipped to quit Red Bull

Two-time F1 world champion Max Verstappen has been tipped to quit Red Bull and join Ferrari in a bid to prove he is one of the greatest of all time.

Verstappen won his first world title in controversial fashion in 2021, pipping Lewis Hamilton by just eight points. He then retained it last year, with Red Bull dominating the competition and winning 17 of the 22 Grand Prix.

And Verstappen looks set for another dominant win this year, having already won five out of seven races and only his Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez posing any kind of threat. As a result of Red Bull's dominance, former Le Mans winner Richard Bradley expects Verstappen to join Ferrari in a bid to prove he belongs in the same bracket as F1 legends Michael Schumacher, Ayrton Senna and Hamilton.
