the dutch Max Verstappen (Red Bull)head of Formula One World Cupwhich set the best time on the free practice day for Grand Prix of Saudi Arabiathe second in the championship, declared in the urban circuit of jeddah that this Friday “was about fine-tuning things” and that “although there are some things that could be improved”, the day was positive.
“I feel much better after a few hard days due to the disease,” explained Verstappen, 25, who is aiming for a third consecutive title and had gastroenteritis in the days before the start of the second World Cup round. “It was not pleasant, but now I feel good,” added ‘Mad Max’, whose victory two Sundays ago in Bahrain took his tally of F1 victories to 36.
“Today on the track, it’s about fine-tuning things and although we had a positive day there are still things we can improve,” said the new idol of the Netherlands fans.
“For a long time, we all seem good, but I think it’s because of the tire management, which doesn’t allow you to push hard at the moment,” said the young Dutch star.
“On a low degradation circuit, the lap times are always going to be very even, so it’s definitely not going to be like Bahrain,” Verstappen said on Friday in Jeddah, where he won last year.
