Red Bull: Verstappen now “so good” at reading F1 races
During the course of the season, Max Verstappen has consistently shown that he has enough in hand to defend himself against his rivals, including at the recent Brazilian Grand Prix. Red Bull team boss Christian Horner explains that this is not due to the team sandbagging, but rather because Verstappen is skilled at managing his pace and tires. Verstappen doesn’t panic if someone is gaining on him in certain sectors because he focuses on the long game. Horner believes that Verstappen developed this ability in 2019 and has continued to improve since then. Verstappen acknowledges that races with high tire degradation, like Brazil, are challenging and require full focus throughout the stints.
