Max Verstappen raises alarm at Red Bull house
Max Verstappen worried
The break between one Formula 1 season and the next is not only for resting after the exertions of a year of no less than twenty-four races (the longest ever), but also for reflecting on the prospects related to the year to come. In this sense, the words of Max Verstappen to the 'De Telegraaf', a real earful from the four-time world champion to Red Bull, definitely make noise.
"It's very simple, next year I might not be champion,” said Verstappen, bluntly. We have to make big steps forward to be competitive next season, è something we all know. This year we had some problems in the second part of the season, I have confidence that they can be overcome unlike what happened in the finale of this season".
"Our weak point è became the balance,” added the Dutchman. " curbs, bumps, slow corners. It wasn't è on pure speed that we were beaten, when we didn't win. In some races we simply had no chance" to be in first place. We saw that clearly".
Max Verstappen's goal is to equal, in 2025, the record of consecutive titles, which belongs to Michael Schumacher (from 2000 to 2004, always at the wheel of Ferrari). The German also holds the absolute record of titles, seven, tied with Lewis Hamilton, to whom the eighth title è eluded in 2021, when it was Max Verstappen himself who won practically at the last corner of the last GP.
