Verstappen reveals factor that can STOP Red Bull clean sweep

Max Verstappen has admitted that Red Bull's attempt to win every single Formula 1 race this season is not in their hands, as the Dutchman warned of the dangers that can occur during a "very long season".

“It doesn’t really matter what people are saying from the outside,” Verstappen told Forbes. “You have to just focus on what you can control and that’s within the team and with the car, and that’s what we’re doing.

“It’s a very long season and it’s all about trying to maximize the result every single weekend.”
