Verstappen surprised after dropping out and gives a text and an explanation: "These things are already two years old"

Max Verstappen can prepare for a catch-up race. The Dutchman seemed to have speed in qualifying, but saw in Q1 the suspension of his right wheel braked on a so-called "sausage border". Verstappen could not go further and was fifteenth, but is allowed from P13 with the penalties of Gasly and Hartley on the network. I've turned above the edge 15. It's a bit strange, because I certainly was not the only one to have it driven. These things have been around for two years, so I do not know why this is happening now. The team tried to repair the damage, but it did not matter anymore. "

Despite the departure of P13, Verstappen is hopeful:" Our long races seemed good and we are often faster in the race. I hope to be able to cross the midfield quickly and from there we have to see what is possible. Last season, I started as a sixteenth and finally finished third (Verstappen finally finished fourth after a time penalty, ed), so who knows. "
