Max Verstappen won the Spanish Grand Prix by force. Despite being well ahead of number two Lewis Hamilton, the Dutchman had a lot of trouble keeping the car between the lines. As a result, the Red Bull driver received three track limit warnings.
"I was struggling a little bit on the hard tyres keeping it within the white lines. I knew once I had that last warning, I have to keep it within the white lines but it's not really an issue," the Dutchman told a press release attended by GPblog.

Sober Verstappen

Despite the complete dominance of Red Bull and Verstappen, the 25-year-old Dutchman remained calm.
"It's a good period but we have to keep on working and finding more performance. I am happy with the car and the last few race weekends have definitely been a lot more positive for me. This is one weekend where it went really well but we also know that maybe some other tracks it's not like this. Still a lot of races to come where we have to perform really well to try and win the race," Verstappen said.
