Not everything went smoothly during qualifying for the Qatar Grand Prix, where Max Verstappen was punished for a completely ridiculous reason.
Of course, Verstappen didn't let the matter go unchallenged and already took back George Russell's position at the start, whom he then harshly criticized in the media. Well, it wasn't without reason...
“I have never seen such behavior from a driver before, and someone who fights with such passion for the other to be punished. What happened between us was simply a slow lap, where he should have just eased off, and that’s it. With this logic, in the future, anyone, even the entire field, could be punished… In fact, this is just the icing on the cake, his behavior is what completely disgusted me. He makes himself look like a good guy in front of the cameras and the public, but behind the scenes, he shows himself in a completely different light. It’s ridiculous what he does, I hate this kind of behavior, I don’t want anything to do with Russell. Let him go to hell!!” – Max Verstappen raged.
Who do you agree with?
