As Max Verstappen prepares to defend his Formula 1 world championship, he has admitted uncertainty over whether he is “fully fixed or not” heading into the new season. The Red Bull star, who dominated the previous campaign, is facing questions about his physical and mental readiness as the intense competition looms.
Verstappen’s comments come amid speculation about minor health concerns and the demanding nature of back-to-back title fights. While he has shown no signs of slowing down on the track, the Dutchman acknowledged that drivers often carry underlying issues that are not always visible to fans.
*”I feel good, but in this sport, you never know if you’re fully fixed or not. The season is long, and you always have to adapt,”* Verstappen said. His statement suggests that while he is confident in his abilities, the unpredictability of Formula 1 means he must remain cautious.
Red Bull enters the season as the favorite once again, with Verstappen looking to add another championship to his growing legacy. However, the competition is expected to be fierce, with Ferrari, Mercedes, and Aston Martin all making improvements. Any slight dip in Verstappen’s form could open the door for his rivals.
Despite his uncertainty, Verstappen remains focused on the challenge ahead. *“Once you’re in the car, you just have to push and see where you stand,”* he added. As the season opener approaches, all eyes will be on the reigning champion to see if he can maintain his dominance or if cracks begin to show.
