Max Verstappen is looking forward to the Monaco Grand Prix. The Dutch Oracle Red Bull Racing driver said: “We made some positive steps forward in Miami and the pace is a lot closer to where we need to be. I felt like we were able to extract a better performance from the car and I felt more comfortable. However, we will keep pushing as there are always things we can improve and work on, which is how we operate as a team.”

Max added: “Monaco is always reliant on good strategy and, as always here, it will be key to get the best result in qualifying. It has been nice to have a bit of time to reset before the double header and good to be close to home and be able to see family especially when it is a hectic weekend on and off track.”
