GP Japan, Ferrari worries Max Verstappen

Here are the words of Max Verstappen at the end of qualifying for the Japanese Grand Prix, in which he took his fourth pole position out of four races this season.

“I think my first lap was very good,” Verstappen told Sky Sport F1 microphones, statements reported by formulapassion.co.uk, “and at that point I already knew that it would be difficult for someone to beat me. Probably my preparation for the’last lap of Q3 wasn’t ideal, I ran out of front tires in the middle of the lap and I couldn’t push like I wanted to in a qualifying lap. In any case è it was still enough for pole and I am happy anyway“.

“In Australia I did well on the dry lap and was very happy and I think last year here I felt better. This weekend è it was a little bit more’ challenging to get comfortable. In qualifying forò I did well, the car è went fairly”.

“The most important thing will be tomorrow, becauseé race simulations this weekend I didné t like so much so far – commented Red Bull’s #1 – we have ideas whyé and we tried to change something, we will try to optimize everything for tomorrow. We tried to try something in FP3, but at the moment è everything is a bit of an ’ unknown. II race pace of Ferrari and McLaren seemed very fast, so we will have to improve the balance to stay ahead of them in the race“.
