Apart from the winter tests in Barcelona at the end of February, Max Verstappen and the other F1 drivers haven't been in their cars for more than seven months when they start at the Red Bull Ring. The Dutchman is fully ready for a hectic season, in which hopefully many races will be won.
Normally the driver of Red Bull Racing had already finished nine Grands Prix around this time and by the time it was Austria's turn they almost went into the summer break for some well deserved rest. Apart from sim racing and training, Verstappen has been able to do nothing but rest the past few months and so the summer for him is all about winning.
"I'm going to try to fight for victory every race", Verstappen says in conversation with the German RTL. "The goal of the whole team is to become champion, but in the end it's all about winning races. It's going to be a very busy calendar, but I'm really looking forward to it after this long break. I don't have to go on summer vacation."
Should Verstappen indeed win many races this season, some special records lie ahead. Besides the fact that the title of 'youngest world champion ever' is still possible, no one has ever won two Grands Prix on the same circuit in one season.
