Max Verstappen has expressed conflicting emotions regarding the upcoming Formula 1 season. On one hand, he desires a more competitive field to enhance the excitement of the races. Conversely, he is eager to maintain his own dominance in the sport. In the previous year, Verstappen achieved an impressive victory in 19 out of 22 races, securing his third consecutive drivers’ championship. While he aims to continue adding to his accolades, he acknowledges that a tighter season would be more appealing to the overall audience.
Verstappen believes that if the regulations remain unaltered for a period of time, the teams will naturally draw closer in terms of competitiveness. He has observed certain patterns among the teams in terms of design, specifically related to the front wing. However, he recognizes that teams do not disclose all the details about their cars until the first race in Bahrain.
Despite the speculation surrounding the future of team principal Christian Horner, Verstappen asserts that it has not been a distraction for him. He emphasizes that the team remains motivated and proud of their accomplishments. Verstappen is focused on his own performance, ensuring that he is physically fit and actively engaged in discussions with the engineers. He also mentions that his life extends beyond F1, and he prefers not to dwell on it excessively outside of his scheduled training. He has other interests and projects that keep him occupied at home.
