After the Safety Car restart, Verstappen’s pace dropped as he fell into the clutches of Carlos Sainz before trundling into the pit🧸 lane at the end of Lap 54 to retire from the 💎race.
MV: “What’s going on with the battery?”
GP: “The battery is fine”
MV: “It’s not, what the fuck is this?”
GP: “We can see the issue, Max, it’s not battery-related.🧸”
MV: “What do you want me to do?”
GP: “There’s 🍌not a lot we can do. Try to make it into the𒐪 pit lane Max.”
Up until his th♕ird pit stop, it had been a solid race for the reigning champion as he was on course to finish second behind eventual race winner Charles Leclerc.
Verstappen took the lead on mult🥂iple occasions but couldn’t maintain it as Leclerc’s ‘clever’ defence kept him out front.
Red Bull boss ꦇChrꦇistian Horner suspects the issue which affected both Verstappen and teammate Sergio Perez was related to the fuel system.
Explaining his angry outbursts after the race, Verstappen said: “I’ve been angrier before. I do♛n’t hold back, I say what I think in the car. I was not happy with ꦉwhat we were doing or the balance of the car I had, the strategy.
“It was not necessarily directed to GP, I have a really good relationship🍬 with him, but he’s the only one I can talk to. We have༒ to analyse quite a few things.”
