F1 Verstappen says Anti-Stall caused his poor start
Posted by AR1 staff October 2, 2022 Max Verstappen fell from eighth on the grid to 12th by Turn 1 after his car almost went into anti-stall mode. He fought back through the pack, but spun while attempting a pass on Lando Norris on lap 40 for 4th place, forcing him to pit again and returning to the track in 13th. Verstappen said: “Yeah I dropped the clutch and anti-stall, so I need to analyze why that happened, but of course, you lose a lot of spots. “From there, I tried to pass a few people, some worked, but then you get stuck in a little bit of a train. Everyone has their tires up to temperature, so it’s really hard to follow.
