Max Verstappen isn't too fazed by being beaten by both Ferraris in qualifying for the Japanese Grand Prix.
Although Red Bull have, in recent events, moved ahead of Ferrari, they appear to have slipped behind in Japan.

Both Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel beat Verstappen into fifth place, although Vettel will start in seventh due to a grid penalty.
Despite being beaten by the red cars, Verstappen wasn't too disappointed by his session.
"Of course we always want to be in front but somehow, in the low speed corners, it didn't really work out for us, and that's where we are normally very strong" Verstapen said. "Perhaps it was the temperatures, we still have to analyse it but in the end we're not too far off."
"I'm not really surprised by Ferrari, they've been close the whole weekend as you can see in qualifying, and of course on this track it's not easy to overtake so I think it will all about strategy between the three teams," he added. "Mercedes will be a little bit faster than us, but between us and Ferrari it will be very close."
