Still continue the, even if light and minimal, difficulties for Max Verstappen. The pilot of the Red Bull even today it was not entirely convincing. In fact, Max seems to have missed something from Monaco. That complete feeling with the RB18 seems to be missing, while teammate Perez is taking advantage of it and also in a big way. Despite this, Verstappen it's always there. Also during qualifying in Baku in fact, the Dutch driver conquers the third position and will start, in the tomorrow's race, in the second row next to the Ferrari by Carlos Sainz.
A qualification of errors
The Dutch world champion comment on the third position obtained in the qualifications of Baku revealing to have made some mistakes: “The start of the lap was good. Then I lost something, because I made some small mistakes. It's not ideal, but today I had to struggle a bit to find the right balance between front and rear over the flying lap, so it's not what I wanted, but as a team being 2nd and 3rd gives us a good opportunity for tomorrow.".
Verstappen also talks about the race pace
SuperMax himself said he was too hopeful for tomorrow having found a good race pace in free practice which, from the official data, seems to be a few tenths faster than Ferrari: Race pace? We are missing something on the flying lap, but over the race distance our car is very good".
