It comes from living through one of the worst weekends of the year. Exactly when he had his first chance to become champion, albeit difficult, in Red Bull Singapore GP Y Verstappen did not perform at the expected level Marina Bay. Red Bull failed the qualifying fuel load because his leader and the 25-year-old driver was unable to make his last lap of the ‘qualy’, which prevented him from fighting for more than a possible pole position and moved him from the start from eighth place to a circuit where it is difficult to catch up. To this was added a Friday with a bit of filming and a race on Sunday where Max lost four places at the start and over-braked in one of the curves. Everything is wrong. For this reason, before the F1 Japanese GP, where this weekend the current champion can defend his title, Max Verstappen wants to send a message to Red Bull: Nothing can go wrong. “I need a perfect weekend”he pointed out, making it clear that Singapore’s mistakes will not be repeated.
“Winning the title in Japan (Honda’s home) will make it even more special, because of our relationship with Honda. I think it was also a shame that we couldn’t be here last year in the title fight. So that’s what we’re really looking forward to, coming back here. And then we’ll see what happens. We need a perfect weekend, that’s for sure.”Verstappen pointed out before this Friday (early Spanish morning) the cars started rolling on Suzuka’s legendary asphalt.
When asked about what happened in Singapore, Verstappen did not want to dwell on it and referred to the need not to fail again.
“When you put fuel in the car for five laps, you can do five laps, you can’t do six laps. You can talk about it for hours, but nothing will change suddenly.. But that’s not all. We had a very difficult Friday in terms of the number of laps. So there too, I think things went wrong,” argued the 25-year-old driver.
“We changed a car that we couldn’t really test, of course, because the track was wet, and we took it to the race. then yes, It was a very chaotic weekend and I think it was a good example of how you want a weekend.”plot.
“You learn from it. But no one should suddenly change in the team. We all know it was a bad weekend. But we also showed this year that we have a very good weekend, so we know how to do it. he concluded, confident that Red Bull will once again show the perfection it has shown in almost the entire course in the execution of the race weekends.
