80 minutes before the start: Max Verstappen's comment

      Max Verstappen qualified fourth in China and would like to win back the race.…

      Max Verstappen: "It's interesting to drive on this track, but because of the new asphalt, it's difficult to figure out how to adjust the car to work effectively with the tires. We have some problems with this, but let's see what we can do today. Perhaps due to the severe degradation of the rubber, an interesting race awaits us. I hope we will perform better than yesterday.

      I don't think we have the fastest car. After yesterday's sprint, we adjusted the settings, and I hope that it will help in the race. If there are opportunities, then, of course, we will take advantage of them. After all, it's important to avoid trouble at the start.

      Let's see how events will develop in the race. I hope I can keep up with the pace of the competitors ahead. It's going to be a long race with a lot of unknowns, one of which is the Hard tires."
