Despite losing pace during the second practice session for the Canadian Grand Prix, Max Verstappen remains optimistic about his chances. Verstappen, who finished ninth quickest on Friday afternoon, expressed satisfaction with his car but acknowledged the need to investigate the drop in performance. Despite facing difficulties during FP2, the Red Bull driver believes it was a positive day overall and is confident in the team’s potential for the race on Sunday. Verstappen aims to recapture the car’s FP1 feel and position for a strong qualifying performance. Despite concerns about competing with McLaren, Verstappen is focusing on fighting for a podium with Ferrari and Mercedes.
