SHANGHAI, China -- Max Verstappen was left fuming after hitting traffic late in qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix and missing out on a final flying lap run.
The Dutchman had posted a time that was good enough for provisional P4 on the grid during the first runs in Q3, but found himself surrounded by cars when Red Bull sent him back out in the final minutes of the session. As a result, he was unable to make it to the start line before the clock ticked down to zero, meaning he missed out on a final qualifying lap.
