Red Bull foca em melhorias no carro para motivar Verstappen

Max Verstappen tem expressado um crescente descontentamento com o regulamento da Fórmula 1 para 2026 e com o desempenho da sua equipe, dando indícios de que pode estar pensando em deixar o esporte. O chefe da equipe Red Bull Racing, Laurent Mekies, enfatizou que a prioridade da equipe é aumentar a competitividade do carro para reengajar o tetracampeão. Melhorias são esperadas antes do Grande Prêmio de Miami.

Max Verstappen descreveu sua luta diária para se manter motivado após o Grande Prêmio do Japão, onde lutou no meio do pelotão. "Todo dia que acordo, me convenço novamente. E eu tento", disse Verstappen ao Motorsport.com, comparando seu humor a uma unidade de potência que começa bem, mas perde rendimento. Em uma entrevista à BBC, ele questionou o valor de uma temporada de 24 corridas em comparação com mais tempo em família, afirmando: "Vale a pena? Ou eu prefiro estar mais em casa com minha família? Ver meus amigos mais, quando você não está aproveitando o seu esporte?"
