I think you're underestimating Red Bull. They basically carried F1 until DTS boosted viewership.

Max probably agreed to this contract knowing that Porsche is coming onboard. If Max's career trends the way it has been, he will no doubt continue racing into his 30's and potentially leave an unbeatable legacy.

A 50/50 deal is smart and shows Porsche's commitment to the team. I don't see Red Bull selling the team to Porsche.
