Lando was better than me in turn 6 so I struggled to follow him in the fast section \u00bb said the four-time world champion after the race.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the race, Verstappen admitted that there was a bit of panic when making a decision as the rain reappeared on the track a few laps before the finish.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab I am happy to bring these points and this result home. It&#8217;s a good result for a first race. There was a bit of panic about what to do when conditions worsened towards the end of the race. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Satisfied with this result, the Dutchman does not fail to mention that the Red Bull is not yet at the level of the McLaren.<\/p>\n<p>\u00ab Even though I found it nice to compete in this race, we still lacked pace compared to the McLarens. I still note that I scored 18 more points here compared to last year. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p>In 2024, Verstappen was indeed forced to retire due to brake issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Second in a chaotic race, the Red Bull driver showed his composure to take a fine second place in Melbourne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":98,"featured_media":45492,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,1749],"tags":[457,941,1334],"class_list":["post-31157","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-f1","category-news","tag-grand-prix-daustralie","tag-verstappen","tag-red-bull"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
