Verstappen: "I was bored in that sense, but it was okay"

Another week and then Formula 1 will finally start again. Due to the coronavirus the season has been postponed for a few months and the drivers were at home. Something Max Verstappen didn't like at all.

In an interview with Speedweek Verstappen says he missed out on racing lately. "It wasn't fun, but much worse for a lot of people all over the world. Luckily I was at least able to drive several races on the simulator", the Red Bull Racing driver says.

"Of course I would have preferred real Formula 1 races. Fortunately it will really start again next week", says Verstappen. The young Dutchman can win the Austrian Grand Prix next week for the third time in a row. Only Alain Prost managed to win the Austrian Grand Prix three times so far.

"I was bored in the sense that I couldn't drive a Formula 1 car, but it was okay. If you look at what's going on in the world, you find out how lucky you are. So no complaints", ends Verstappen.
