The qualification for the GP of Silverstone ended for Max yesterday, somewhat of a downer. Advance, he put in on p7/8, but it was p13 because the Person fighting with his Toro Rosso. Hours after it became known why.

On Max’ website winds she wipes around it, and go no further than ‘it had a technical cause, which has to do with the driveability‘, but the insiders are slightly more specific: a well-functioning anti-roll bar would have caused upset and hot rear tyres, which would explain why Max in Q1 spun and on the radio complained about ‘zero grip’.

After VT3 was on Verstappens #33 car, the base plate replaced, because this slight damage. Or this has ensured that the interaction with the anti-roll bar disturbed and touched to know only the engineers, but the most important thing is that the leak is internal top is, and Max can go hunting on a top 10 position and, therefore, a puntenfinish.

He should only still as pristine along Crashtor and Grosjean, both of which are close to him. With a good bandenstrategie should still be possible this afternoon.

Update: Verstappen.nl gives more openness of affairs, and his article an update is given, in which mention is made of a faulty wastegate of the turbo, in place of problematic anti-rollbars.
