F1: Verstappen wants more competition

–by Mark Cipolloni–

Max Verstappen is hoping that his Red Bull competitors catch up soon because he is getting a bit bored winning all the races.

Verstappen gets much more satisfaction when he wins if the races are close.

Verstappen took great satisfaction beating Lewis Hamilton like a drum when they raced wheel-to-wheel.

Both Aston Martin and Mercedes feel they can beat Red Bull at Silverstone, where they typically are not as strong.

The wind tunnel penalties are also catching up to Red Bull as outlined in this article.
