Disappointing Sprint It was a terrible Saturday for Max Verstappen at Silverstone. The Dutchman from Red Bull started third, but only finished the Sprint in sixth position after a race that seemed to highlight all the problems of the RB22, starting with a terrible start. A problem, that of the start, which had already emerged in the starting tests on Friday at the end of FP1. But even during the race – despite the numerous battles involving Verstappen with the various Leclercs, Russells and Piastris – the four-time world champion seemed far from satisfied with the performance of his car. “I’m too slow (compared to my rivals). Too slow everywhere: high speed, low speed, the power delivery is a little different over the course of the lap, but in general we’re too slow and we have more degradation in the tyres, so everyone else overtakes us – Verstappen said on Sky Sport F1 – improve the car? We’ll try. I think we’ve made some very bad choices, but we have some limits that we can’t overcome here. Every weekend we bring some updates but then we need to tidy up the car a bit balancing, also because the various updates then change the balance”.
