Verstappen expects to compete with Mercedes during Belgian Grand Prix!

Verstappen qualified in fifth position for Sunday's race, behind the two Ferraris and two Mercedes cars. 

The Dutchman is in brilliant form, winning two of the last four races to establish himself in P3 in the drivers' standings.

Verstappen told Ziggo Sport after the session: "I think Ferrari is just really faster this weekend.

“We are in a good position compared to Mercedes. Certainly with the problems we had this morning, we are close, so I expect that we can compete with them. 

“We have had problems throughout the weekend that if we want more power, it won't work. That's a shame on a circuit where you need it."
