“The W12 (car) feels in a better place, after the upgrades introduced at Silverstone and an encouraging showing in Hungary.” The battle is far from over,” Mercedes head of motorsport Toto Wolff said. “This has been one of the most intense F1 seasons that I can remember. Red Bull’s speed allied to Verstappen’s relentless intensity have tested the resilience of a Mercedes team long used to dominating. “I also think it is a good place to re-set our championship fight and I’m well prepared.”įor Hamilton has renewed momentum as he bids for a 100th career GP win, and a record eighth F1 title to pull ahead of Michael Schumacher and stand alone among F1 greats.īut Hamilton has been pushed harder than at any time since his then-Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg won the 2016 title. “It will be cool to see so much orange in the grandstands again,” he said. Last year the stands were empty because of coronavirus regulations. The 23-year-old Dutchman can count on huge support Sunday from orange-clad fans who will make the short trip from nearby Netherlands. “I will be there again, I will try my very best, and of course I hope my car is going to be competitive.” “It’s a lot of freak moments which cost us a lot of points,” he said. Yet, for reasons largely out of his control, he trails in the standings. Understandably, Verstappen may feel annoyed considering he leads Hamilton 5-4 in wins, 5-3 for pole positions and 4-3 for fastest laps so far. He recovered to eighth place despite driving a damaged car, but Hamilton finished second and moved ahead overall.

I like when there is high grip and I can just stick my car in and attack every corner.Verstappen was unlucky in the following race at the Hungarian GP, where he was one of several drivers to go off track following a clumsy first-lap mistake by Hamilton’s Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas. Q: Which driving conditions do you prefer, wet or dry?Ī: DRY DRY DRY. BUT, any time a new game comes out my first meters are always at Spa, it has the most variety of corners so a good place to get to know setups and new handling model. Q: What is your favourite track on F1 2017?Ī: Spa, China, Usa, Silverstone.

Q: What is your favourite wheel that you've driven with?Ī: Fanatec wheel have been the best so far which we drove with during the Pro Draft. And my qualy pace helps me to not get into trouble in the first few laps of any racing if there is any.

And my mental state, I rarely crack under preassure. Q: If you think there is something/anything that will give you an advantage over your competitors, what is it and how will you use it?Ī: I will try to get a Fanatec setup as soon as possible to practice in the same conditions that we will have during the series. I really like qualifying, I think I have an exceptional one-lap pace so a lot of times I do not even need to overtake because I am in the front. I know I have the pace to overtake with strategy or during the many race laps we usually have. Q: What type of driving style do you think you have?Ī: I am very concious, nearly never doing anything with high risk.
2017 was also exciting and 2018 looks MEGA too. Championship was decided by 2 or 4 points, and in the first 6 races there was 6 different race winner drivers and 6 different teams. Q: Which was your favourite year in F1 and why?Ī: Year 2012: It's very easy to answer. In F1 2018 Closed Beta, I enjoyed Mercedes and Sauber the most to be honest. I also have a huge respect to Sainz and Hulkenberg, they are very nice people in my opinion.Ī: I am happy to drive all of the cars with Williams and Renault as an exception.
The one who I've cheered the most for is probably Sebastian Vettel, but I extremely like Hamilton, Max, Leclerc, and Ocon too. A: Because I started to watch F1 in 2009 (when I was 9, I do not have big legends on my list from the older times, my favs are current drivers) I like a lot of drivers to be honest.
