I’m looking forward to seeing all the support again at the track, hopefully we’ll put on a good show for everyone in the grandstands."

Verstappen on weather forecast in Austria

Quite a bit of rain is predicted ahead of the weekend and a sprint race is also scheduled once again, both could make for a spectacle in Austria. "This is the second Sprint race of the season, they are always more hectic and complex compared to a normal race. The weather looks a bit unpredictable too so it will definitely mix things up a little bit."
