Max Verstappen wants to move on from his crash at the Monaco Grand Prix and plans to do by going on the attack in Canada.
Verstappen had a stellar race in Monte Carlo before ploughing into the back of Romain Grosjean in the latter part of the race. The two men had very different opinions on who was to blame; Grosjean labelled Verstappen "dangerous" but the Dutch teen accused the Lotus driver of brake testing him.
Lotus refuted Verstappen's allegation last week, saying the data cleared Grosjean of any wrong doing. The stewards agreed, slapping the 17-year-old with two penalty points on his superlicence and a five-place grid penalty for the Canadian Grand Prix.
"Without a doubt it was my biggest crash," he said on his official website. "The impact was 30g. You just see the barrier come towards you and you're thinking 'I really have to brace myself'. You know you're about to crash. But that crash is behind me now. There's nothing I can change and everything is said and done."
The severity of the crash means Verstappen will need to undergo mandatory FIA checks on Thursday to be cleared for the race.
Speaking about his tactics with a grid penalty to serve, he said: "It means I'll have to do a few overtakes."
