Max Verstappen was firmly displeased with the way his Red Bull was performing during the opening day of season finale in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n
Verstappen clocked a time good enough for P3 in FP2, but the Dutchman expressed his frustration with car balance and general grip.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think from our side the balance was very off, a lot of understeer, a lot of jumping, so definitely a few things to figure out for tomorrow.\u201d Verstappen said.<\/p>\n
\u201cA lot to figure out for FP3 to be good in qualifying, but we\u2019ll see. I didn\u2019t expect it to be so far off, so that\u2019s also a bit of a question mark for us.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re still P3, it\u2019s not too bad, but balance-wise I think it can be a lot better, so we\u2019ll try and have a look at what happened there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Verstappen goes into the season’s finale aiming for a remarkable 19 win, which will be the icing on the cake for his incredible campaign, in which he was utterly invincible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
