The immediate and predominant reaction from those watching was more bully than boss... F1
Such was Verstappen’s annoyance that six months, 10 wins, and one World title down the line he took his revenge.
Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle all but applauded Verstappen’s action, saying: “That’s a very powerful radio message from Max Verstappen. That is ‘I’m in charge around here – I call the shots’.” It came across to a lot of people that Verstappen did nothing on Sunday but effectively kick the little guy while he was down, because, let’s be honest, no one really wants to be haggling over points to finish second, it’s just first loser as the saying goes.
There’s no question about it, if a driver deliberately crashes then he is in the wrong and in the worst way possible for manipulating a result.
