Verstappen rules out win, admits Red Bull at a loss with car
Max Verstappen expressed his frustration with Red Bull’s lack of understanding regarding their struggles in the Singapore Grand Prix and believes that winning from outside the top 10 is impossible due to his car’s performance issues. Both Verstappen and Sergio Perez failed to make it past Q2 for the first time in five years, citing concerns about the car’s handling throughout the weekend. Despite Red Bull’s unbeaten streak and 10 consecutive victories, Verstappen acknowledges that extending this streak is unlikely. He expressed disappointment in the team’s inability to optimize the car’s setup for the Singapore track, resulting in difficulties with braking, front tire unloading, and lack of rear support. Verstappen also admitted that his impeding of Yuki Tsunoda would likely result in a penalty and described his qualifying experience as chaotic and messy.
