维斯塔潘抱怨红牛反复出现的无线电问题，称其为“灾难”，并开玩笑说他们不如改用手语沟通。
这位四届冠军在美国大奖赛上获得第三名，落后于冠军基米·安东内利和夏尔·勒克莱尔，这场比赛对他而言令人沮丧且问题频发。更糟的是，这位荷兰车手还遭遇了无线电故障，使得与维修区墙的沟通比本该有的难度大得多。
赛后新闻发布会上，当被问及第二次遇到这类问题有多令人沮丧时，维斯塔潘急于纠正这位记者。
“这不是第二次。这已经是，我不知道今年第多少次了。也许我们该开始用手语沟通了。那样可能还更便宜。这简直是一场灾难。是的，就是一场灾难。说实话，这真的非常令人沮丧，”他说。
维斯塔潘并不是唯一受影响的红牛车手。队友伊萨克·哈贾尔在首圈从第三位掉落后最终以第六名完赛，他表示自己听不清工程师的指令，可能因此带着错误的引擎设置离开了维修区。
“而且我的无线电信号很差。我听不到维修区里发生了什么。我离开维修区时用错了模式，”哈贾尔告诉天空体育F1。
无线电只是维斯塔潘赛后列出的几个问题之一。他对车队的轮胎选择感到失望，抱怨了一次缓慢的进站，并指出动力单元表现不一致，他说这使得他无法建立节奏。
“动力单元问题太多了，在弯道周围表现非常不一致，每一圈、每个弯道，表现都不同。所以，你无法建立节奏，你无法在车里建立任何一致性。我进站很慢。所以，是的，今天太多事情不顺利了。”
这一结果结束了这位红牛车手连续两场胜利的势头，他曾在雪邦和新加坡夺冠，他承认自己幸运地登上了领奖台。
他说：“我们仍然登上了领奖台，也许最后虚拟安全车（VSC）出动时我们有点幸运，但我接受这个结果。”
这是维斯塔潘本赛季第10次登上领奖台。但在还剩五站的情况下，他已彻底退出冠军争夺。如果梅赛德斯的安东内利在下周末的墨西哥站进入前九名，他就将成为2026年一级方程式世界冠军。
红牛抵达奥斯汀时正与迈凯伦争夺车队积分榜第三名，维斯塔潘承认车队已低于其通常水准。
他最后说道：“通常我们很擅长这些事，但今天我们没做到。”

Max Verstappen jokes Red Bull should abandon radios after United States GP struggles
Max Verstappen has suggested an unusual solution to Red Bull's ongoing communication failures after a difficult race in Austin
For Red Bull fans. Keeping watch on Red Bull Racing, with F1 news, driver updates, technical insight and race analysis from Milton Keynes.
Max Verstappen has complained about Red Bull's repeated radio issues, calling them "a disaster" and joking that they should start communicating in sign language instead.
The four-time champion finished third behind winner Kimi Antonelli and Charles Leclerc at the United States Grand Prix after what was a frustrating and issue-ridden race. And to make things even more difficult, the Dutchman suffered radio issues that made communication with the pitwall much harder than it should have been.
Asked in the press conference following the race how frustrating it is to have those types of issues for a second time, Verstappen was keen to correct the journalist.
“It’s not the second time. It’s already, I don’t know how many times this year. Maybe we should just start communicating in sign language. It’s probably cheaper as well. It’s a disaster. Yeah, it’s a disaster. It’s really frustrating, to be honest,” he said.
Verstappen was not the only Red Bull driver to be affected. Team-mate Isack Hadjar, who finished sixth after dropping from third on the opening lap, said he could not hear his engineers properly and left the pits with the wrong engine setting potentially as a result.
“And then I have poor radio coverage. I can’t hear what’s happening in the pits. I leave the pits with the wrong map,” Hadjar told Sky Sports F1.
Radio was only one of several problems Verstappen listed after the race. He was disappointed with the team’s tyre choices, lamented a slow pitstop and highlighted inconsistent behaviour from the power unit, which he said had made it impossible to build a rhythm.
“Too many issues with the power unit, where it was just very inconsistent behaviour around the corners, every lap, every corner, different behaviour. So, you can’t build up a rhythm, you can’t build any kind of consistency in the car. I had a slow pitstop. So, yeah, too many things today that just didn’t go well.”
The result ended a run of two consecutive wins for the Red Bull driver, who had won in Sepang and Singapore, and he admitted he had been fortunate to finish on the podium.
“We still managed to get on the podium, maybe a little bit lucky with the VSC at the end, but I’ll take it,” he said.
It was Verstappen’s 10th podium of the season. But with five rounds remaining, he is now totally out of contention for the title. If Mercedes' Antonelli finishes in the top nine in Mexico next weekend, he will be the 2026 Formula 1 world champion.
Red Bull arrived in Austin fighting McLaren for third in the constructors’ championship, and Verstappen admitted the team had fallen below its usual standards.
“Normally we’re very good at these things, but today we weren’t,” he ended.
