Max Verstappen has delivered an X-rated team radio that summed up the Monaco Grand Prix.
Throughout the weekend, the reigning Formula 1 champion has struggled to get the hold on his car.
During qualifying on Saturday, the Red Bull star hit the wall on his final flying lap.
Speaking ahead of the race, Verstappen, who qualified sixth, said: “I’m not disappointed with the position, I’m disappointed with our performance.
“It’s not come as a surprise to me because I knew our limitations coming into this weekend. It’s been bad. I can’t take any kerbs. In the middle sector, I’m driving around the kerbs. It feels like I’m driving a go-kart, with no suspension and no damping.”
On Sunday, the race got off to a chaotic start as the session was red flagged after a few corners.
Verstappen’s teammate, Sergio Perez, was involved in a huge accident with Haas drivers Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg.
After the restart, Verstappen continued to struggle as he failed to overtake Mercedes star George Russell.
The Monaco circuit is famed for being extremely difficult to overtake and a frustrated Verstappen said on team radio: “F**k me, this is boring. Should’ve brought my pillow.”
Speaking about his weekend in Monaco, Verstappen said: “It’s been very difficult for us. I felt really comfortable in the high-speed corners, at least that was enjoyable but in the low-speed we are losing too much, where it’s bumpy and the car is jumping around.
“There are a few more tracks coming up where it’s bumpy and you need the right kerbs. It’s definitely a limitation for us.”
He added: “If it’s a straightforward race, there’s not much you can do. The cars are so wide and so big, that you can’t pass. We will try to stick with them. We don’t have the fastest car.
“It’s not like we qualified out of position, so there’s not a pace advantage we can use. We will see what happens.”
