Max Verstappen did not make any predictions for the coming weekend and only emphasized that he appreciates the new format of the stages, the program of which includes a sprint, more than the previous one.
Max Verstappen: “Of course we have to solve a problem this weekend with many unknown factors, and this has to do with the Shanghai circuit, because we have not raced cars of this generation here yet. It’s important to be productive during our only training on Friday and let’s hope we can find a good rhythm soon.
Honestly, it’s only after this that things will become clearer and we’ll see how everything turns out. But I think the new sprint weekend format is still better, because it gives more opportunities to work with the car. I think it makes more sense, and I think it should have been made that way.
Of course, a lot has changed for our team since the previous Chinese Grand Prix, which was held in 2019. But the situation in the championship as a whole has changed and I’m just really happy to be back on this track. Let’s hope we can do well this weekend.”
