After the United States Grand Prix, Max Verstappen has now arrived in Mexico for the second round of the triple header, that ends in Brazil. Looking forward to coming weekend at Autodromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Max says: “Mexico is always a great race and, of course, it is Checo’s home race so is always an incredible atmosphere. The track is at such a high altitude, which you do need to adjust to a bit more, but we have historically done well here and I have always enjoyed driving at this track.”

Max adds: “We made some good steps in Austin and saw some promising improvements with the car, but it wasn’t quite enough for the race. The team are working hard to iron out these issues, but ultimately it was a step forward in the right direction and to win the sprint was a boost for the team. We are heading into the second race of the triple header so it will be about keeping this momentum heading forwards and continuing to gain crucial points in the championship.”
