Verstappen: "At the moment, it's difficult to say anything about that"

Max Verstappen hopes to have a good start in the coming season. The new calendar that has recently been shown also seems to be favourable for him and Red Bull Racing.

Good start

The season starts with two races on the Red Bull Ring, where Verstappen won the last two years. "Of course I am very happy that we can start there", says Verstappen to the German Sky Sport.

Behind Mercedes

"Normally we're a little behind Mercedes in the first races. After seven or eight races we always have a good car and then we are normally in Spielberg or at the Hungaroring. That's different now of course", Verstappen continues.

"I hope that we will be there from the first race. But at the moment it is difficult to say anything about that", the Dutchman ends. The new Formula 1 season starts in the weekend of July 5th.
