Verstappen voices concern over poor Singapore Sprint start despite win
Max Verstappen said he was unhappy with his start in the Singapore Sprint even though he went on to win. The result followed his first time topping qualifying at Marina Bay, while he warned that a similar launch on Sunday could be costly.
Max Verstappen described his start in the Sprint at the Singapore Grand Prix as very poor, despite recovering to take victory for Red Bull in difficult conditions.
The win came a day after Verstappen topped a Formula 1 qualifying session at the Marina Bay Street Circuit for the first time. Those sprint sessions also suggested Red Bull had a competitive car in Singapore.
Even with the Sprint victory, Verstappen made clear he was not satisfied with the getaway. He warned that if he has a similarly bad start in Sunday's race, it could effectively ruin his chances.
