'Some people are saying Verstappen should take it easy'

This weekend the Grand Prix of Sakhir is on the calendar. There will be another race in Bahrain, but this time the alternative layout of the track will be used. This layout is around the regular track, and will be very fast because of the many straights.

In principle, this is an advantage for the Mercedes team, which is certainly dominant in terms of power. However, Peter Windsor is curious to see what Max Verstappen can show this weekend.

Aggressive line Verstappen at restart

In a video on his YouTube channel "Max drove an aggressive line at the restart to stay ahead of Sergio Perez. This was again the subject of discussion with many people who thought he was too aggressive.

"I understand Max because Sergio is the hardest man to catch up with on the track. He must have wanted to stay ahead of him at all costs. But now there are some people who think he should slow down a bit, so this weekend will be interesting to see how he's going to do in that area," says Windsor.
