It is about the package, which is why teams that want to win will want the best possible driver on the grid. I'm not saying Verstappen is a racing god, but he is one of the two drivers on the grid who are clearly a step above the rest. The other driver is Hamilton and Hamilton going to Ferrari shows that teams will make room of drivers like Hamilton or Verstappen. Sainz is a great driver, he's the only non RBR driver to win a GP since 2023. I'm sure Ferrari was happy with how well Sainz performed. But Sainz is not Hamilton. I don't think I even need to sing praise to Hamilton, everyone knows he is one of the greats. Hamilton wanted to go to Ferrari and Ferrari made sure it would happen.
In the same vein if Max wants to go to McLaren or Merc or AM, those teams will make sure he gets a seat. You don't turn down a chance to get a generational talent like Verstappen.
