Max Verstappen has already achieved seven victories in the first 10 races of this year’s Formula 1 season. The team started strong, but their rivals have caught up in terms of development, resulting in several defeats for the Milton Keynes-based team. Despite this, Verstappen dismisses the idea of a possible title fight as a waste of energy. He remains focused on maximizing his performance in the race and spends a significant amount of time discussing with his engineers.
The next race on the F1 calendar is the Austrian Grand Prix, which is Red Bull’s home race. The team has had success at this track in recent years. However, with rivals closing in, there is a possibility of losing the victory to other teams. Verstappen has expressed concerns about finding the right balance for the RB20 car, as one practice session is not enough to determine the ideal setup. This could lead to an intense battle between several teams during the upcoming race weekend.
