Max Verstappen is ready to start the fifth Grand Prix of the season. In Miami, the Dutchman, like the other Formula 1 drivers, will have to deal with an entirely new circuit, making it difficult for him to predict how the weekend will go. Verstappen is hoping for a strong Red Bull Racing.

"We have a good car and hopefully we can get a good result again," Verstappen kicked off at the press conference, broadcast by Sky Sports. The three free practice sessions will be important on Friday and Saturday. "On a new track, a lot of things can be right, but also a lot of things can be wrong. We have to see what works for us."

Verstappen's approach to a weekend is similar to last season. "Every year you want to be better right? Nothing really changes you try to be consistent and not make mistakes. From my side the feeling is pretty similar", said the 24-year-old driver.

Perez performs well

The fact that Perez seems to be of greater value at the Austrian compared to last season is not surprising to Verstappen. "It helps to have a year in the team and with the regulations everyone starts from zero so he is more comfortable in the car."
