Max Verstappen has indicated he needs a conversation with Red Bull regarding random engine braking issues affecting his car. The reigning world champion highlighted the problem after experiencing unpredictable engine braking behavior during recent sessions.
The issue, described as "random" by Verstappen, has prompted the Dutch driver to seek discussions with the team's engine department to find a solution ahead of upcoming races. A photo from the paddock by Ronald Vording captured the moment on November 4, 2026.
