Max Verstappen slams "idiots" on social media who exaggerated his relationship with Lando Norris during their title battle.
Verstappen and Norris have enjoyed a good friendship during their time in F1 but their relationship was put to the test last year as they fought each other for the world championship.
"People always make it really a lot worse on social media. There are a lot of idiots on that platform that always have something to say, something to complain about," Verstappen said. "You're fighting for the World Championship. I think it's normal that these kind of things can happen, but we're good."Verstappen turned in a stunning comeback drive from 17th on the grid to win a chaotic wet race in Brazil which put him on the verge of sealing the world title.
