At a time when Max Verstappen‘s motivation has been questioned, former F1 driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen has shared a clear message on social media. It seems that his message is mainly directed at the Dutch driver, who has recently expressed concerns about his performance.
Frentzen stated: “If you lose your motivation in F1, it’s better to retire or, at least, take a break. That’s what I did. The sport is too dangerous if you lose focus.” This comment comes at a time when Verstappen has voiced his frustrations with the new competition regulations.
The Red Bull Racing driver has openly shown his discontent with the current situation. “I don’t know what else to think. It doesn’t frustrate or bore me, I just accept it as it comes,” he said after qualifying in 11th position for the Japanese Grand Prix.
Verstappen’s father, Jos, expressed his concern to De Telegraaf last week, stating that his son might lose motivation if things continue this way. “Racing with these cars doesn’t challenge him like it used to. He fears this could become a problem in the future,” he pointed out.
With a complicated outlook and no clear horizon, Verstappen added: “I hope we can solve some things in the coming weeks and months. There are many issues I need to resolve,” hinting that there is still work to be done both personally and as a team.
