Max Verstappen faces a problem with the tyre

“I was just trying to stay with Charles without hurting the tires too much because that was a bit my problem in the first stint, to see what would happen in the last 10 laps or 15 laps,” said Verstappen raising concerns regarding the medium tire compound. Max seemed to struggle with the medium compound tyres in the opening stint but was able to push following a Virtual Safety car and soon after changed to a hard compound.

Due to the Virtual Safety car, Max got a chance to cool down the tires a bit which helped him a lot in pushing and catching up to Charles in the later stages of the race. Max Verstappen was more than happy on the hard tire in general with degradation which helped him win the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix.
