So, we never like turned around when it suddenly started raining. We would put the rain tires on and we would go and practice and that just helps a lot. You get a lot more understanding of what you have to do when it rains."Max Verstappen always had something extra in the rain: Father JosMax Verstappen's skills were on display this season in the wet race in Japan. Under torrential conditions where the track was just too wet, Verstappen ended up opening a gap of around 28 seconds to Sergio Perez in second place. What was mighty impressive about this was the fact that the race was only run for around 40 minutes because of the conditions. This meant that Verstappen pulled out a second-per-lap on the second-fastest car on the grid.F1Destinations@F1destinationsMax Verstappen wins a wet and shortened #JapaneseGP and is crowned World Champion for the second time! #F1254Max Verstappen wins a wet and shortened #JapaneseGP and is crowned World Champion for the second time! #F1 https://t.co/rjEhAO4L0sFather Jos Verstappen commented on this on his blog and said that Max always had something extra in the bag in the rain.
