Max Verstappen said on Thursday that he will need a bit of luck in one of the four remaining Grands Prix this season if he is to catch McLaren’s drivers’s championship leaders Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.

“We need to be faster than McLaren from now to the end of the season. We’ve had some good rounds where the gap came down, but now with four races, it’s still a pretty big gap. I need to score a lot more points every weekend, which is not that straightforward,” said the Red Bull driver, who is looking to complete a hat-trick of wins here.


“If you would give me the 2023 season, with how everything was, and you tell me I’m 36 points behind, with four races to go, I’m like ‘yeah, no problem, easy’, but this season has been a little bit different. I’ll need a bit of luck,” added the Dutchman.



Verstappen, the incumbent world champion, currently has 321 points in his kitty as compared to Norris with 357, and his teammate Piastri with 356.
