Verstappen stated, “It doesn’t really matter what people are saying from the outside. You have to just focus on what you can control and that’s within the team and with the car, and that’s what we’re doing. Of course, we had a really good start to the year, and of course, we’d really like to keep that going, but sometimes it can also be a bit out of your hands what is happening throughout the weekend.”
With the Formula 1 season being long and demanding, Verstappen understands the need to maximize results at each race weekend. He remains grounded and determined to extract the best possible performance from himself and the team.
