Verstappen and Red Bull have been doing really well in F1 lately. They’ve won a lot of races, and Verstappen has even won two world titles. People thought their new car, RB20, would keep them winning easily.
But McLaren and Ferrari have been improving, and now they’re almost as good as Red Bull. Lando Norris even won a race recently and gave Verstappen a tough fight in another race.
In Italy, Red Bull had some trouble with their car in practice. They had to work hard to make it better for the rest of the weekend. Verstappen still did well in the race, thanks to some smart moves.
Verstappen knows they can’t make any mistakes anymore if they want to keep winning. He says they have to be at their best all the time.
He’s a bit worried about the Monaco race because their car doesn’t handle bumps and corners very well. But they’ve made some improvements, so he hopes they’ll do okay.
Even though Red Bull has been doing great, Verstappen knows they can’t relax. Every race is a new challenge, and they have to keep working hard to stay ahead.
