Verstappen: We don't like being the fourth team.

      For the home stage, Red Bull Racing has prepared a major update. On Thursday, Max Verstappen was asked whether the effectiveness of these innovations would influence his decision – whether he would stay with the team or leave...

      Max Verstappen: "This is important not only for me, but for all of us, for the team. We want to improve our results compared to the beginning of the season, to ultimately achieve more. We know the car is not efficient enough, and we want to make it faster. Everyone in the team is focused on this.

      We hope these innovations will help increase its efficiency. But one week one team brings updates, the next week another. This is a normal process.

      How long am I willing to wait? Let's see how it all unfolds. It's hard to answer that question right now. We don't like being the fourth fastest team; we want to be in better shape. That's what we're working on right now.

      This weekend has always been important for us, home for the team. Fortunately, we have won here many times. So this weekend, we came with the desire to do our job as well as possible. There are always many Dutch fans here, the "orange atmosphere" makes the weekend especially enjoyable.

      A warning about hot weather? Yes, it's hot here, but I'm fine with that. Driving these cars doesn't require much physical effort. We've had hot races before. It was hot here last year too. For me, it doesn't change anything. I will wear a cooling vest until I get in the car. I don't like it."
