Just maybe MAX could have been a bit tongue in cheek with that, it's called toeing the line for lack of a better word. MAX is still in danger of a race ban when Spa resumes.

wise move

but will Max stay?

could be good for George if Max stays, could be real bad if Max leaves anyway and all his discussion with Horner is gone and Mekies doesn't want Russell ...

I think this solidifies Max moving teams... Horner was holding that team together, imo. Maybe he took on too many roles and didn't allow for enough upward movement of his staff, but Laurent has some huge shoes to fill. With a new car, new engine builder, etc. I think Max jumps ship to Merc or AM. Rus maybe gets scooped up by Caddy? Alo retires? Checo back to RB sans Horner? so many options. This will be a silly season...

I think the biggest move ever seen in F1 is coming with Max signing to a new team.

I don't like Mekies , he looks like a retarded idiot.

The 2026 Ford PU will fail . MAX should accept Wolff's offer - $150Million/2 year.
I heard , Mercedes agreed to buy MAX out with $100Million .

The 2026 Ford PU can completely ruin MAX's F1 career (!)
If MAX leaves Red Bull . Then the Red Bull F1 Team is completely gone...
