On the ground where Max Verstappen once captured his first Grand Prix victory, the Dutchman is heading for number 40 seven years later. The circuit near the Spanish city undoubtedly holds a special place with the now two-time world champion. Possibly the Red Bull Racing driver will talk about this on Friday afternoon, when the traditional press conference is scheduled. Verstappen is one of the speakers.

The media meeting starts at 1:30 pm and will be held in two parts. Verstappen is designated to attend the first half-hour. Then, among others, Esteban Ocon will also be present. He surprisingly finished third in Monaco last week. After a short break, Ferrari's Carlos Sainz joins for the second part of the press conference. The Spaniard will be joined by Nyck de Vries and Lance Stroll, among others, ahead of his home race.

On Friday, it is the turn of the team bosses. This time no press conference attended by Christian Horner (Red Bull) or Toto Wolff (Mercedes), but rather Franz Tost (AlphaTauri), Mike Krack (Aston Martin), Frederic Vasseur (Ferrari) and Andrea Stella (McLaren).
