Moreover, he shared his views on the current calendar, “Only new tracks and street circuits… I don’t find that very interesting myself.”

Do you think F1 should continue with its plan of dropping Spa or should the historic circuit continue to feature on the calendar?

Max’s start to 2022

The Dutchman has started the 2022 season in fine form. He enjoyed a great pre-testing in Barcelona with no major hiccups. Confidence boosting testing in Bahrain followed, but his season opener in Bahrain was foiled by technical issues. However, redemption came in the next race in Jeddah, clinching the win from Charles Leclerc in the dying stages of the race.

So far this season Max and Red Bull are the only challengers to Ferrari’s dominance. Verstappen currently sits third in the driver’s standings behind the Ferrari duo of Leclerc and Sainz. He will be hoping to continue his run of fine performances in the next race in Australia.
