F1 | Red Bull, Verstappen confirms apologies to Vettel: "We must always try to learn"

In an interview given to the microphones of Sky Sport F1 HD, Max Verstappen returned to talk about the contact in China with Sebastian Vettel, confirming his apologies to the Ferrari German.

Max, we remember, approached Seb at the end of the race two weeks ago, immediately asking for forgiveness for the aggressive maneuver at the hairpin. The current world championship leader, contrary to predictions, did not want to spark any controversy, accepting the Dutchman's apologies with a pat on the back.

An extremely mature gesture that surprised many professionals. Verstappen underlined how the opportunity missed in Shanghai will serve as a lesson for him for the future, highlighting how it is essential for a driver to always try to learn something from each weekend.

Here are the words of Max Verstappen: “It was clear that I needed to apologize to Seb and so I did. He was very kind to accept them and it was quite nice. You always have to try to learn every race weekend and as a driver you always want to improve. There has been a lot of action in China, maybe more than expected, but that won't change anything in me. I've learned from what I've done and I'll move on, stop. Here in Baku we will try again knowing that we have an excellent car in our hands. We hope to have a competitive weekend."
