Max Verstappen might be a little worse for wear for Sunday's Grand Prix, should he wrap up the title in Saturday's Sprint race...
Max Verstappen has vowed to find a way to celebrate on Saturday night, should he win the title in the Qatar Grand Prix Sprint race.
Speaking to media on Thursday at Lusail, Verstappen was asked whether he and Red Bull have any celebrations planned for the Saturday night should he clinch the title.“Then we’ll see what happens on Sunday. Nothing crazy. There’s still a race that we want to win on Sunday, of course, but we’ll see!” As for whether he foresees any issues in wrapping up the title or Red Bull having any unusual pace issues as happened in Singapore, Verstappen doubts there will be any stumbling blocks.“But, again, it’s only one practice session. So it’s about making sure that, once we hit the ground running, that the car is in a good place, a good window.
“It’s more, I think for the drivers as well, I prefer just the normal racing format. I think it’s just a bit more exciting. Especially in qualifying, you can go more to the limit because you know more of what you’ve done in practice. “You watch qualifying like, ‘Oh, wow, OK, but it might be that one car is in front and he will drop back in the race’, but it’s all unclear.
