In the final stage in Mexico City, Max Verstappen took his 16th victory of the season, setting a new record. The Red Bull Racing driver does not stop there and hopes to continue his winning streak in Sao Paulo.
Max Verstappen: “The stage in Brazil completes the series of stages built up and will host the last sprint of the season. After a successful race in Mexico City, we are confident that we will perform well this weekend, but we must remain focused.
It’s incredible that I have already won sixteen races this season. I didn’t think it would be possible to beat last year’s total, but the team is having a great season. I appreciate the hard work and commitment of everyone on the team, and I’m happy to see the results of our work visible on the track. I will try to win the 17th race!”
Sergio Perez: “The race in Mexico City was devastating for me, but that’s what happens in sport. You can’t allow yourself to keep thinking about what happened. I wanted to win the home race more than any other, but the opportunity was lost and now my goal is to finish second in the drivers’ standings at the end of the season.
You must have a successful weekend in Brazil. I am confident that we can show results. Last weekend everything started to work thanks to the steps taken: I feel comfortable in the car and together with the team we found the right settings and speed.
The challenges in Brazil are completely different to those in Mexico City, but it is an interesting circuit and there are two points opportunities this weekend. It is of course more difficult to find the settings in the sprint stages, but we want to maximize our chances.”
