Max Verstappen: I can't explain series of mistakes

MONTE CARLO, Monaco -- After crashing out of final practice at the Monaco Grand Prix, Max Verstappen could not explain why he has struggled to stay out of trouble at the opening six rounds this year.

In Australia he spun while chasing Kevin Magnussen's Haas at the start of the race, in Bahrain he spun in qualifying and made contact with Lewis Hamilton in the race, in China he crashed into Sebastian Vettel and in Baku he crashed in practice as well as colliding with teammate Daniel Ricciardo in the race. At the Spanish Grand Prix he also lost part of his front wing against Lance Stroll's Williams, but went on to score a podium by the end of the race.
