Max Verstappen may have wrapped up his third Formula One drivers’ championship in Qatar on Saturday, but other topics have dominated the post-race headlines. The extreme heat faced by the drivers in Qatar, combined with a flat-out race and a high-speed track, made for the most demanding race of their careers. Logan Sargeant felt so ill he pulled out of the race, Esteban Ocon threw up in his cockpit, and both Alex Albon and Lance Stroll had to go to the medical center after the grand prix.
“In Suzuka, the lap he did was line-on-line on the data with Alex, but obviously it’s marred by the fact that, the last corner, he had far too aggressive a throttle application, and there was a crash — and a significant crash — as a result of it,” Vowles said. “What we’re working with him on is actually the progression up until that point. He dialed it from two seconds away from Alex to within a tenth in FP3 – in fact, he was faster in FP3.
