The 24-year-old is two points behind Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton in the championship standings.

"The whole team wants to win so that mentality is definitely there," he said, before the Turkish Grand Prix.

"But it is nothing you can force or you have to stress about because we always want to do the best we can."

Red Bull are in the title fight for the first time since 2013 but Verstappen said he was not wasting any time thinking about what he could achieve by the end of the year.
