‘Got what he had coming to him’ - Does Max Verstappen need to change?

Has the time come for Max Verstappen to change his aggressive approach to racing in F1?

We are not alone in our thoughts....

@Mactech
“I think you may be crediting Liberty with far more foresight and ability to actively influence the racing results than they have.
Happenstance and incompetence are much more likely to have handed Max his '21 title....that and the untimely death of Charlie Whiting.”

Fairy Nuff…

The interviews with 'Whinger Spice' annoy me almost as much as Max's attitude to running people off the road - Horner ALWAYS seems to condone and encourage this behaviour.

EDIT: I realise it was his race engineer who said 'lots and lots of moaning', but I feel that it's a team attitude that comes from the top.

I've been saying for years, Redbull are rotten from the top down.

Looks like a grid penalty coming Verstappens way for the Brazil GP due to his Mexico GP engine change.
Lando needs all the help he can get if he is to overturn the points defecit to MV.
It appears unlikely, but it only take one accident, one DNF and things can change quickly.

Fresh blow for Max Verstappen with grid penalty set to be triggered

Max Verstappen is likely to serve a grid penalty at the Brazilian Grand Prix in a fresh boost to Lando Norris's F1 2024 title hopes.

As I type can hear the Kevin & Perry style whining moans emanating from Milton Keynes

Might be all it takes is another kamikaze lunge into a corner - hopefully not against Lando - to result in a visit to the barriers for Vercrashem to really spice up the last 3 races, hopefully with a papya result on both constructors and drivers!!

For a man who lost a championship to a Schumacher foul, I think he has a right to an opinion.

"They say that sport doesn't build character, it shows character, and his default is to revert to preventative methods rather than trying to keep it within the bounds of fairness," Hill added.

Well said, Damon. I couldn’t have summed it up better.

Well that made me feel my age ; the Beeb finding it necessary to explain who D Dastardly and the Wacky Racers were.

The company I worked for sold their products globally and our sales force was therefore multi-national. One of them was a really nice Chinese guy called Mark Lee who spoke excellent, but heavily accented, English.

As was common practice in the company, he would answer internal phone calls just with his name and as a result became known throughout the organisation as "Muttley"

There is a restaurant in Arundel called the China Palace......I smile every time I call them when they move it to France....." Herro, China Paris!". But of course their English is still way better than my mandarin!!!

Oh what a shame (NOT!!), lets hope he finishes 6th or lower in quali (with Lando on pole!!).

With his grid penalty, 6th is the best he can start if he won qualifying tomorrow.
Fingers crossed for Lando to be on pole.
I'm hoping Verstappen continues to show his contempt for the rules and gets himself another penalty.
