Max Verstappen is keen to achieve a good result at the UK Grand Prix, one of his most favourite circuits. The Dutchman from Red Bull is looking forward to the race at Silverstone and is especially curious about the weather.
"I'm looking forward to the new triple header, Silverstone is a great track to drive. The corners are really fast. At Silverstone you need to get the right wing level and for the lower speed corners you'd rather have more downforce and grip".
Verstappen is curious about the weather. "It may rain at Silverstone, of course, even though it's summer in Britain, haha. But I like those conditions and maybe we don't mind if it starts raining, because that might shake things up", the Dutchman says in a preview on behalf of Red Bull.
Really cool
Verstappen and his crew were able to fully recharge the battery during the race-less weekend. "It's a good thing the team had a week off after the triple header to get back to the family. Especially after the stress prior to the race in Hungary", Verstappen refers to his crash in the warm-up lap. "I looked back at the video of the mechanics and it was really cool to see how they got my car on the grid. Without them I wouldn't even have started."
