The Dutch driver felt that the car lacked drivability and compared it to a hopping kangaroo. The bumpy track in Monaco puts the team at a disadvantage. Despite facing difficulties in the practice sessions in Imola, Verstappen managed to win the race due to changes in the setup. However, he believes Monaco is a different story and the team cannot make similar modifications.
