Max Verstappen has raised concerns about possible unseen damage to his car following a remarkable recovery drive at the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday. The Dutch driver, who started from a lower grid position, fought his way through the field to secure a strong result, but suspects the car may have sustained hidden issues during the race.

Verstappen's comments came after the race at Interlagos, where he demonstrated exceptional pace and overtaking ability. The team will now conduct a thorough inspection to assess any potential damage that could affect upcoming rounds.
