Toto will 100% kick Russell if he can get Verstappen. If you can pick up one of the best drivers in F1 history, you pick them up.
First of all 2026 is brand new regulations which means McLaren might not be as dominant next year as they are this year. And secondly they currently have a driver who can't even fight the McLarens and they would be buying the driver who at least can put up a fight with a weaker car.
If Russell stays at Merc he's going to get a year or two (depending on how long it takes for Kimi to get comfortable) to go for the WDC (if Merc nail the regulations and get a car as dominant as the current McLaren). Because when Kimi is Ready Russell will become the Lando Norris of Merc, good enough to help win the WCC but not good enough to win the WDC.
