car left him “shouting on the radio” as he feared for his qualifying chances at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
Verstappen was not completely happy the balance of his car throughout the session and reported his RB19 was “jumping like a kangaroo” over the bumps during the early stages of Q1."We lined up for Q3 and you could see the sky was just black. I was like: 'Well, if that rain hits, it is going to be a lot’,” the Dutchman explained.
"I was shouting on the radio saying: 'What the hell happened?' We were nowhere, but the team said everyone was struggling. I have never seen such an influence on car balance."“The gaps were just very, very close,” he said. “I think we were quite competitive so I think no one really knew who was going to be first in Q3 if it would have been a normal session without the weather incoming.“I didn’t even have a lap on a soft tyre.
