Seeing Max Verstappen Vecht against a McLaren driver in Run 1 of a Formula 1 Grand Prix has become in the normal of the norm after two seasons.
While Vestappen often fights against Land Norris, he fought on Sunday at the Saudi Aarabic Grad Prix with Oscar Piastri after the lights went out at the Jeddah Corniche Circit. Starting with Verstappen in the pole position and Piastri in the front row in the front row, the two fights in the Cruz corner after the McLaren driver got a great start of the line. Verstappen succeeded in holding the position, to do this, and eventually received a five -second fine to leave the job to gain an advantage.
That opened the door for the third victory of the season, while he took the checkered flag for Verstappen and Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc. Speaking at the FIA press conference Appter De Grand Prix, Verstappen praised the calmness of the McLaren director, as well as his approach to racing.
“I think I said it before. People forget a bit – last year was his second year. Now he is in his third year and he is Vray Solid.” It can be seen on the right track. [Webber, Piastri’s manager and a former Red Bull driver] He helps him a lot by his side. It’s great. People learn from their own career – that’s what I had with my father, and Mark advises Oscar.
“Oscar uses historically at the end of the day, and that’s great to see.”
That was one of the longer answers that Verstappen gave after the race on Sunday, while the Red Bull driver briefly kept his answers and to the point when he was asked about the punishment or other aspects of the race. Verstappen indicated that he would keep his responsibilities shorts and not “too much”, so his words were not twisted.
“It should generally do social media, and what the world is like,” said Verstappen. “I would rather not talk to much because sub -times that your words can be twisted or people interpret it in a different way. To be honest, it is better not to say much. So that’s what I try to do.”
Speaking shows the “less talk” of him in the FIA press conference Verstappen, the better.
“Like I said before, it’s just the world in which we live. You can’t share your opinion that is apparently not appreciated, or people can’t handle the full truth,” Versppen added. “To be honest, it is better if I don’t say too much. It also saves my time because we have to do so much. Anyway.
One can certainly understand the frustration of Verstappen. F1 drivers are Faed with substantial medium-sized requirements, including medium-sized requirements such as a press conference after the race that takes place just after Grand Prix Prix has been concluded. And specify it with regard to the Red Bull driver, it was his description of the RB20 last season in a press conference prior to the Singapore Grand Prix that had handled the controversy fines handed out by the FIA for drivers who sweared during the media pits during the media pits.
That is why we may not hear much from Verstappen in the coming weeks, except what he says through his driving. So what he said about Piastri, who now leads the rankings of the drivers, speaks volumes.
