Max Verstappen got his own back on the British press, which has heavily criticised him lately.
Following his exceptional performance at the São Paulo Grand Prix, Max Verstappen took the opportunity to poke fun at the British media who had previously criticized him. Despite starting 17th on the grid at Interlagos, Verstappen showcased one of his strongest F1 drives to secure his 62nd career victory, becoming only the sixth driver to win from that position or lower in 1121 races. This win also marked the end of a 10-race winless streak for Verstappen, putting him in a commanding position in the drivers’ championship with a 62-point lead over Lando Norris. During the post-race press conference in São Paulo, Verstappen light-heartedly questioned the absence of British press, sparking laughter from his fellow drivers, Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly. Gasly even chimed in, acknowledging the humor in Verstappen’s observation with a playful comment.
