Max Verstappen will start from pole position in front of 70.000 Dutch fans. In the Build Up the Dutchman explains his expectations for the race to the cheers of the fans in the stands.
"Obviously I'm looking forward to it tremendously. The support I've had this whole weekend is really unprecedented. I hope we can end it on a good note and that of course is a victory. I'll do my best," explained Verstappen to Dutch reporter Jack Plooij, who for the occasion can do the interviews before the race. Normally there is a part in English and a part in the language of origin, but Plooij forgot to ask Verstappen some questions in English.
When asked if Verstappen would like to say something in English, he first reacted with surprise."What do you want me to say then?" Eventually he also lets the English audience know what he expects from the race. "It's great to be here. The whole weekend has been really crazy. I really drove around this track with a smile and I hope we can end it with a win".
