Verstappen: "We were much quicker than Ferrari"

After securing his first podium of the season, Max Verstappen has said that Red Bull were much faster on the day than Ferrari were, as Sebastian Vettel struggled to charge down Verstappen while having both fresher tyres and a front wing that was intact.

Speaking to Dutch tv-station Ziggo Sport, Verstappen explained what went so well for him during the race, and how he ended up on the podium.

"When you start in fifth, this is a very good result," he said during the press conference.

The fact that Sebastian Vettel was chasing him down on fresher tyres, didn't bother the Dutch youngster.

With a broken wing, that is. Didn't that bother him?

Straight-line speed has been a known issue for Renault-engines for a while now. That won't be going away any time soon, trust us.
