However, after being beaten by his team-mate after starting on pole position in Miami, the Mexican driver started to crumble, while Verstappen went on to win a record-breaking ten races on the bounce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to Wache, Checo\u2019s struggles are a symbol of one of the faults of the team\u2019s 2023 season. In an interview with Formule1.NL, he said: \u201cA fast car is a car that allows the driver to perform to the maximum.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to join our WhatsApp community to be the first to receive breaking and exclusive F1 news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <strong>Norris loses temper with reporter after Verstappen was called his best friend[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe failed in that respect because only one driver, Max, in this case, could handle it well.
