Max Verstappen will start the Mexican Grand Prix from fifth place and has voiced concern about his getaway off the line. The Red Bull driver has struggled with slow starts in recent races and joked that his launch is 'just as fast as a Le Mans start', warning that a weak start on the long run to turn one in Mexico City could prove costly on Sunday.
