DRS was a major issue for Max Verstappen at the Spanish Grand Prix. Besides, George Russell’s tremendous defending kept the Red Bull at bay.
Max Verstappen started the race second when a gust of wind unsettled the car. He spun around but was quick to manage a comeback. However, this was very advantageous to other rivals. Moreover, with the DRS not working properly, Verstappen got agitated and was swearing down the radio.

Team Red Bull did try to sort the issues out while explaining Max certain ways to activate the DRS. However, with Russell’s unwillingness to give up, a wheel-to-wheel battle emerged with several close moments.
