Verstappen with great confidence in Bahrain: 'We've had good days'

Max Verstappen looks ahead to the second week of testing in Bahrain in a calm manner. The Dutchman spoke with Verstappen.com about the upcoming test week and his expectations.

Red Bull Racing and Max Verstappen came out well in Barcelona during the first week of testing. The team drove a total of 357 laps, of which Verstappen managed 206 on his own. Sergio Perez drove the fastest time on the C4 tyre in Barcelona, but was four tenths slower than Lewis Hamilton's fastest time on the C5 tyre.

Because of this good first test week Verstappen is looking with a good feeling towards the second test week. "In itself quite relaxed. We've had pretty good test days in Barcelona and the car just works well. Before the first race there will be updates for the car," the Dutchman reassured his fans.

In Bahrain, however, it is not Red Bull Racing, but Mercedes that is in the spotlight. Lewis Hamilton's team came into Bahrain with a revamped W13, which stood out mainly for its lack of sidepods. You won't miss a thing from the test with GPblog's liveblog.
