## Verstappen's Singapore record
Verstappen has stood on podium four times in Singapore but has yet to win the race.
## Singapore weakness explained
Verstappen acknowledges Red Bull struggles with bumps and kerbs in low-speed corners at Singapore.

> In the last few years, we've always been bad in low speed and just kerb riding, taking the bumps
## Baku and Malaysia upgrades
Red Bull's Baku and Malaysia upgrades show improved low-speed performance but circuit differences remain.
## Hadjar's confidence
Isack Hadjar believes Red Bull can overcome Singapore weakness after Baku and Malaysia success.

> Especially if you look at the last two rounds, those were two very different tracks, Baku and Sepang. They have literally nothing in common, yet the car was delivering on both occasions
## Madrid performance
Verstappen secured second place in Madrid, showing potential improvement on kerbs.
## Singapore sprint challenges
Singapore's one practice session requires quick execution to maximize car performance.

> It's every year that during the day you have a little bit less grip here. It's probably a little bit harder on the tyres, but the most important thing is just to find a good balance with the car straight away in FP1
## Verstappen's outlook
Verstappen hopes Red Bull will be more competitive in Singapore this year than previous seasons.

> So, of course, I have unfinished business here when you have not won the race yet. Actually every year I come back and I'm trying to win it
## Singapore race impact
Singapore's street circuit demands precise car balance to overcome low-speed challenges.
## Key takeaway

Max Verstappen says Red Bull has improved low-speed corners but still struggles with bumps and kerbs at Singapore.
