La Red Bull punta sui miglioramenti della vettura per motivare Verstappen

Max Verstappen ha espresso un crescente malcontento riguardo ai regolamenti di Formula 1 del 2026 e alle prestazioni del suo team, lasciando intendere la possibilità di lasciare lo sport. Il team principal della Red Bull Racing, Laurent Mekies, ha sottolineato che la priorità della scuderia è migliorare la competitività della vettura per coinvolgere nuovamente il quattro volte campione. Sono attesi miglioramenti in vista del Gran Premio di Miami.

Dopo il Gran Premio del Giappone, dove ha lottato a centro gruppo, Max Verstappen ha descritto la sua quotidiana lotta per restare motivato. "Ogni giorno mi sveglio e cerco di convincermi di nuovo. E ci provo", ha dichiarato Verstappen a Motorsport.com, paragonando il suo stato d'animo a una power unit che parte bene ma poi perde potenza. In un'intervista alla BBC, ha messo in dubbio il valore di una stagione da 24 gare rispetto a una maggiore presenza in famiglia, affermando: "Ne vale la pena? O preferisco stare di più a casa con la mia famiglia? Vedere di più i miei amici quando non ti stai godendo il tuo sport?"
