Verstappen, ironic with the Red Bull situation: “We have car degradation”
Every session that passes, Max Verstappen seems to be getting angrier and angrier with the current performance of his Red Bull. The main reason? Reliability: “We continue to have different problems all the time, that is the main problem at the moment. Something new always appears and that’s not good.“.
The Dutch He spun in the last corner during the final attempt of Q3causing the yellow flag for which Antonelli is investigated, in an accident very similar to the one in Austria, where his rear wing did not close correctly. He just lost the back of the car.
“We don’t have tire degradation, we have car degradation”
With its characteristic anger combined with sarcasmhe explained it to television: “We don’t have tire degradation, we have car degradation.”
All the drivers have had a hard time or have not been able to improve on their second attempt. Many pointed to the wind, Verstappen points to the car: “For me it got worse lap after lap, I don’t think it’s the track’s fault”. A Red Bull that is being unpredictable: “If you have a balance problem, that’s one thing, but If it changes from one lap to another, it is very complicated“.
His complaint and speech already began even before he got out of the car: “The car is completely broken aerodynamically. It gets worse and worse”the four-time world champion exclaimed on the radio.
The most dramatic thing of all is that there are already several grand prizes having problems and their team cannot find a solution. Verstappen himself doesn’t understand them either: “Today they were problems with the car, problems I can’t explainto be honest.”
Tomorrow he will start from sixth position on the gridwith cars that have looked faster today ahead. And, perhaps more importantly, behind drivers who are happier and more in tune with their car.
