Max Verstappen looked revived before attending this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix in Monza. The Dutchman returned to the controversy over Red Bull’s strategy chief Hannah Schmitz at the Dutch Grand Prix last Sunday. At the Zandvoort circuit, Yuki Tsunoda, who was racing for Red Bull’s AlphaTauri, stopped at the edge of the track in the middle of the race, causing the virtual safety car to intervene, which indirectly favored Max Verstappen. Therefore, some Formula 1 fans saw a certain conspiracy in this and lashed out at Hannah Schmitz on social media.
Faced with the violence of the Red Bull engineer’s comments, the AlphaTauri team clarified the situation with a press release: “Yuki (Tsunoda) experienced a malfunction that the team did not immediately detect, causing her to stop on the way. To suggest anything different is insulting and categorically wrong. It is incredibly discouraging to read some of the comments and comments directed at our team and Red Bull Racing’s Chief Strategy Officer Hannah Schmitz. This type of hateful behavior is intolerable and maintaining accusations of wrongful action is unacceptable, wrong and completely disrespectful between Hannah and me. We have always competed independently, fairly and with the highest level of respect and sportsmanship.“
on your microphone sky sports, Max Verstappen added a layer. The 24-year-old pilot did not hide his anger at this controversy: “This is not true and I’m glad we released this version to fix it, that’s what it should be. But these events shouldn’t happen, and it’s basically ridiculous to think about these things. Who would have thought that was possible in this sport? It’s beyond me that we start to hate some people. What happened is terrible, but Hannah is a strong person who knows what she’s doing.“
Max Verstappen then attacked social networks. The reigning Formula 1 world champion is calling for tougher action against authors of online hate speech:That’s the problem with social networks: everyone can say whatever they want. There needs to be more control over hate messages. Some companies seem to emphasize this but that’s not enough because you can create another account and continue that way. Even if they block your IP address, you can go elsewhere. People are smart enough to find a way around it. A solution must be found. Social networks are growing. It’s a good thing and a very good tool, but it also has a few downsides.“
