I know he’s going to be aggressive so I’m in a way not surprise. “It's not just a repercussion of things that happen on track it’s now what we carry into Silverstone and be disadvantaged by, yeah, just expected a bit more from him.”Norris' DNF means Verstappen has extended his lead in the F1 drivers' championship to 81 points.
