The current championship leader, Max Verstappen, might be expecting some pressure by now, but the 23-years-old appeared to be composed as he heads into the British GP this weekend.

After making his debut back in 2014, the dutch finally got a genuine opportunity to compete for the championship title this season.

And he is going head to head for the world championship with one of the most successful drivers of all time, Lewis Hamilton.

Since the start of the season, Verstappen’s approach has been to be calm and not bother much about the future. However, Verstappen’s father Jos Verstappen gets worried about his son’s style of approaching race weekends.

Meanwhile, the Dutch admit he likes how he approaches the race week weekends and prefers to save energy instead of debating with his father.

What did Max Verstappen say?

“My dad sometimes was a bit worried that I couldn’t be bothered or I was too relaxed. But I said, ‘Dad, don’t worry, this is just the way I like it and how I approach to get into a race weekend or, like, my zone,’ said Max Verstappen in an interview with BBC.

“Nowadays my dad is more excited about starting the F1 weekend than I am. I get sent so many things, my dad asking questions about the weekend, and I am like, ‘I will find out when I get to the track.’

“At the end of the day, it is like that. I can tell you a 10-minute story about what I think, but 70% of the time it turns out different. So I prefer to save the energy and just say we’ll find out and see what happens.

Verstappen to look for another victory at Hamilton’s home turf

Max Verstappen is in the form of his life. The Dutch won back-to-back three Grand Prix and would be the favorite again to win at Mercedes and Hamilton’s home turf.

With a competitive car at his disposal, Max Verstappen would certainly look to end Mercedes and Hamilton’s dominance this season. The Dutch currently leads the drivers’ championship and is 32 points ahead of his arch-rival, Lewis Hamilton.

The Knight and Silver Arrows will look to bounce back at their backyard, where they have been traditionally strong. The Brackley-based team have won nearly every race at Silverstone since 2013 except the 2018 season. On the other hand, Red Bull won the British GP all the way back in 2012.
