Verstappen sets sights on constructors' title, but: 'Pressure is off'

Verstappen ahead of Austin

Verstappen speaks of a relaxed build-up to the United States Grand Prix. "Of course you still want to win and of course we want to get the constructors' championship, we have a great opportunity for that here, but the pressure is definitely off," said the two-time world champion.

Of course, that second title still had to be celebrated, but how much time was there? "One day in Monaco," says Verstappen, who still had a full agenda of commitments in the aftermath of the Japan GP. These included doing the necessary simulator work to prepare for the upcoming races, as well as being out on the track at Imola with David Coulthard.
