There are 69 points difference between Max Verstappen and Checo Pérez in the drivers’ championship. The Dutchman is walking steadily towards his third consecutive Formula 1 championship. His teammate has deflated and is currently not holding his own after eight races.
And the Dutchman has left some very striking statements talking about how Red Bull would be at the moment without him. “If I hadn’t been there, things would be very different for Red Bull,” said the two-time Grand Circus champion in statements reported by ‘Marca’.
“I would not be happy not to reach Q3 three times in a row. I am not worried either. I am quite busy on my side of the garage. I pay my attention to that”, Max has expressed, in clear reference to Pérez.
Is Fernando coming?
Fernando Alonso is nine points behind Checo in the drivers’ championship. And he believes that he can reach him. In recent races he has cut many points. “Yes,” he responded bluntly when asked if he thought he could make it to second place.
Aston Martin upgrades work. They proved it in Canada, where they were once again the second fastest car, only behind Max. In addition, Alonso’s fuel problems prevented him from keeping up with the Dutchman.
