But Verstappen’s run to ♛a 10th straight F1 victory in 𝓰a row was not all plain-sailing, with the Dutchman revealing he had to manage a problem with his car. 

The two-time w🧸orl﷽d champion said “everything felt good” for most of Sunday’s race but admitted he “had to nurse a little issue at the end.”

“But we had, luckily, of course, a gap behin🥂d so I could easily back off,” Vಞerstappen added. 

Verstappen൲ was asked to “increase the gap to Gasly” on multiple occasions by race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase in what was described as being “quite an 💯urgent request.”

However, the issue ultimately d🍎id not hamper the Dutchman’s bid to make F1 history. 

Verstappen saidꦦ he worked to force Sainz into the mistake that ultimately cost the Spaniard the lead on lap 15 when he locked his brakes into 🌳the first chicane. 

“We had good pace,” he explained. “I think we🦩 were good on the tyres, but they had a lot of to💜p speed.

“It was so hard to get close and get a move on into turn one, so I had to force h♊im into a mistak﷽e. 

“Luckily it 🌜came at some point where he locked up and then I had be𓃲tter traction out of turn two and basically from there once we could again do our own race.

“I was just trying to stay patient. That was still a very long race. I could s𒆙ee they were struggling a lot with a rear tyre, so I just had to pick my moment.”
