“[I’m] more relaxed, more consistent and know how to build up a weekend and stuff like that,” said Verstappen. “I just feel very comfortable.
“I’m a very relaxed person anyway so, for me, it was never really super high pressure, but I am more relaxed in a way that I know what’s coming.
“I have experienced a lot already so going to a weekend, I mean, I’m excited to be racing, but I don’t get excited a lot by other stuff surrounding it because you’ve experienced so many different emotions throughout the whole weekend and the year.”
Verstappen will be back in action on Sunday as Red Bull look to close the gap on Mercedes at the Spanish Grand Prix.
The 22-year-old is currently second in the drivers’ standings, 30 points adrift of leader Hamilton, after five races.
Red Bull are second in the World Constructors’ Championship table ahead of the showdown at the Circuit de Catalunya.
