Aston Martin Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen has admitted that he's already looking ahead to next year despite there still being five races remaining this year. The Dutchman currently stands fourth in the drivers' standings, just three points behind Ferrari's Charles Leclerc.
Third place is all but secured for the Red Bull Racing, but reaching the second place is out of the question to the superiority of Mercedes and Ferrari.
“I remain positive about it, "Verstappen said.
Of course, we expected a bit more now, but next year is another year and new things can happen.
"Everyone is working hard to start well next year, so let's wait. "
Verstappen finished fourth in the previous race in Russia after some mixed results following the break which saw a DNF and an 8th place finish.
