Max Verstappen weighs his words. Recently, several videos circulating on social networks show Dutch fans burning goods at the Austrian Grand Prix on July 10, among them Mercedes team and Lewis Hamilton. After his victory in Hungary last Sunday, Max Verstappen spoke to the press about this debate: “This is of course unacceptable. Those fans… No, those people… I totally disagree with that, because it’s just gross.“
Last year, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton battled hard for the world title title and were eventually won by the Red Bull driver on the final lap of the season at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Dubai. Despite the fierce rivalry between himself and the Brit from Mercedes, Max Verstappen did not hide that he was impressed by what he saw on social networks: “These burnt goods videos make me sick to my stomach.“The Dutchman then chose to put the good atmosphere of the podium in Austria into perspective and keep it in perspective. The race was won by Charles Leclerc ahead of Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton:”Overall, I think the majority of the fans cheered a lot for each driver throughout the race and also on the podium. I think that’s how it should be.“
This season, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are far from playing in the same category. The Red Bull driver is on track to defend his title by dominating the world championship with 258 points, while the Briton is sixth overall with 146 points.
