Max looks ahead to Saudi Arabia: 'We will come back stronger'

Max Verstappen is already looking ahead to the second Grand Prix of the season, in Saudi Arabia, after the Oracle Red Bull Racing driver unfortunately was forced to retire his car during the closing phase of the Bahrain Grand Prix.

“Last weekend was a tough one for all of us to take. We win and lose as a team and we’ll come back stronger this week. We have a good package and we were competitive in Bahrain, so there are positives to take from the weekend. We have a very long season ahead – it was only the first race.”

“Looking ahead to Saudi, the track is still very new for us, last year the humidity was challenging and they’ve made some small adjustments to visibility in sector one so I'm curious to see how it's going to be this time around. It's a really quick track with high speed straights and this year the cars are slightly heavier so it's going to be really interesting to see how they will perform. I’m really looking forward to it, it should be enjoyable!”
