Obviously, if Verstappen leaves RBR for Mercedes in 2026, Russell will race at Red Bull in 2026. It will be a swap.
The body language of Verstappen after leaving the damaged cars: he immediately removed his helmet, walked towards Kimi and calmly approached him (looks as if he said "Don't worry, Kimi - these things can happen"). Kimi apologized to Verstappen.
If it had been Russell, Verstappen would have kept his helmet on and would have made some angry gestures.
Noticed earlier this season that Verstappen and Kimi get along very well. As if they know already that it's likely that they will be team mates in 2026.
