Alonso is a perfectly example of a good racer who didn't know when to keep his mouth shut. He was also hampered by being given poor advice.
Verstappen has similar problems...the sooner he stops listening to his father and bans his whole entourage from races the sooner he can grow up and perhaps fulfil his potential.
In his current frame of mind he would be a poor fit for Mercedes...Ferrari are more likely to take him but I'm not sure they really need yet another driver who thinks they can run the team and drive the car at the same time.
