Verstappen: "It doesn't really bother me"

The first free practice sessions of 2020 are over and Max Verstappen called Olav Mol in the Ziggo F1 cafe. They discussed the new protocols on and around the circuit because of the coronavirus.

"You have to wear a mask all the time, of course, but it doesn't really bother me. You have to enter certain places in a certain way. And then a different route out again. And of course keep your distance," says Verstappen.

There are big signs all around the circuit with all the measures. There are relatively few people on the circuit to prevent the risk of spreading.

"The mechanics are happy we can race again. Although there are a lot of mechanics who enjoyed being with their family for a long time. I've done nice things myself. In Monaco a lot of things quickly opened up again. A lot of preparation and a lot of training at home", the Red Bull Racing driver ends.
