A better launch from Verstappen enabled him to claim the inside line and snatch the lead from McLaren’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lando Norris at Turn 1, before he cantered to his fourth victory from six spri✤nt r🌼aces this year. 

The Red Bull driver☂ led from start to finish and admitted he was backing off a lot throughout the 24-lap race to nurse his tyres. 

Given that 🤪Verstappen comfortably won by over four seconds, his admission will likely worry his rivals heading into Sunday’s grand prix. 

“There is not o❀ne lap that I pushed flat out. You can’t, it’s impossible,” the Dutchman explained. 

“For 24 laps around here, it’s all about tyre management. It’s 🎀just incredibly difficult around here.

“Last year we were struggling a l𒀰otܫ with that already in the sprint race and that’s why it was a bit careful. Luckily it worked out.

“The whole race🌠 the tyres don’t feel particularly great around here. But with the management we did, I think it worked out and we won the race.”

Verstappen, who can make it 17 win꧃s from 20 races this season in Brazil, added: “Like I said, it’s all about management, and at one point of the race it looked like Lando was♐ catching a bit. 

“Then I had a better feeling with the car again and I could look after the tyres a bit better and then I coul🧸d pull away again at the end. So it was🌟 close.

“Tomorrow we have pit stops in the race, so you never ꧋know what’s goingꦑ to happen.”
