Going into battle with two cars

Despite Perez's arrival Verstappen's hunger to beat his teammate still remains. "That's the goal. It's always the goal to beat your teammate. And for the team it is now important that we are able to fight with two cars. A bit like with Daniel [Ricciardo, red] at the time," Verstappen explained during the end-of-year interview with Ziggo Sport.

Verstappen feels Perez has an interesting style but believes he executes it very well "I think he is doing very well in the races. Aggressive, yet controlled. He does that well," added Verstappen.
