“Nobody is perfect. You can always improve. I am very happy to listen and also improve like everyo꧟ne else. These situations just make you a better driver at🃏 the end of the day.” 

Verstappen added that along with his father he also turns to Red Bull’s Helmut Marko for a🔴dvice, adding the Austrian “understand🃏s” racing. 

“I speak to many people but of course my dad is t꧑he main person. I’ve spoken a lot with Helmut as well, because he understands racinℱg very well.

“Of🎀 course I have to look at myself. At the end of the day, I could speak to a lot of people, but it has to come from me so I have to understand myself.”&nb𝔉sp;
