The Dutch driver puts on a show in the press conference, making light of the American GP and the rigid weather conditions. He then comments on the World Championship
Max Verstappen has done it again. The Red Bull driver spoke with extreme irony in the press conference about the upcoming weekend in Las Vegas, the third-to-last round of the World Championship.
Coming off an extraordinary comeback in Brazil, where he achieved a podium finish starting from the pit lane, the World Championship battle sees the four-time World Champion in third place, 49 points behind the leader Lando Norris (read his comments here).
Super Max’s Words and Irony: “The next race at the North Pole”
A never-dull Max Verstappen thus expressed himself in today’s press conference, starting with the topic of the World Championship: “I mean, it’s a lot of points, so I’m not really thinking about it too much, because there’s also not much that I can do. We need a lot of luck now ’til the end to even have an opportunity. So I, personally, don’t think about that “.
A comment on Red Bull’s season followed: “It’s been a good season for sure. I think every season you want to try and be better, which is not always easy, but you try to be more consistent and try to really optimize everything that you can with the car. And I think most of the time, we really did that, so I’m pleased with that
““I definitely enjoyed the highs and the wins that we did score, but at the same time, the lows were also not fantastic. But at one point, after the summer break, we were looking at a points gap of more than a hundred points, and it really looked like it was only going to get bigger
““And at one point, we were really overturning that by quite a bit. Sure there a bit of luck in some places, but yeah, I think that’s something we can be proud of, to still score some good results at the end of the season “.
Finally, the irony related to the weather conditions expected in Nevada came in response to a question about his personal choice for a crazy GP location in a future calendar: “Next crazy GP? North Pole “.
