Verstappen makes no predictions for Abu Dhabi race yet

The final qualifying session in the RB19 is over for Max Verstappen. Twelve pole positions for the Dutchman is the culmination of a fine season which has seen him win both the drivers' and constructors' titles. The Dutchman says he is happy with the car he has driven this year but has a side note.

"I enjoyed it more in the race, to be honest," begins the three-time world champion. "But sometimes, of course, in qualifying, we had some really good laps. But it definitely shows that the details can make a massive difference, because today, I was not so happy up until qualifying. And then, in qualifying, the car's behaviour turned to normal."

About tomorrow's race, Verstappen does not dare say anything yet: "Nice. I have no clue how the car will behave in the race. I've not really done anything. I've only done a little bit of running. I've only done a little bit of long running, so I guess we'll find out throughout the race. But I mean, so far, most of the races, of course, we have been quite strong. Tomorrow, I just have to ease myself into it a little bit."
