Max Verstappen won the Miami Sprint race but wasn't pleased with his Red Bull car and complained over the radio about a lack of rear tyre grip during Saturday's race
Max Verstappen said he was "still not entirely happy" with his Red Bull car despite winning Saturday's Sprint race in Florida.
Fortunately for the 26-year-old, changes to Parc Fermé rules this year allow set-up changes between the Sprint and qualifying for the main race. And Verstappen is relying on progress during that time to ensure he is more comfortably in his car for the rest of the weekend. "Still not entirely happy with the balance of the car, so we need to look into that. Yeah, a bit too much oversteer, I would say. So we'll try to fine tune that no before qualifying, because I had the same problem yesterday in qualifying.
"At least now with the new format, we can still fine tune the car a little bit. So hopefully we can improve it a little bit for later on in qualifying, and especially for tomorrow in the race. But the win is good. I'm happy with that. And it gives us a good few points to look at as well to improve."
