Irked Max Verstappen hits out at continued talk about his F1 penalty points situation.
Max Verstappen expressed his frustration with the ongoing discussion and questions about his F1 race ban threat, labeling it as “childish.” Verstappen is facing a potential race ban after accumulating 11 penalty points in the last 12 months due to incidents like his collision with George Russell in Spain. To avoid suspension, he needs to have clean weekends in Canada and Austria. Despite the pressure, Verstappen narrowly missed out on pole position to Russell in Montreal, setting up an exciting race with their rivalry intensifying. Russell playfully teased Verstappen about the penalty points situation but also acknowledged that Verstappen has more at stake in the championship race. However, Russell remains focused on his own performance and is not concerned about the potential impact of the penalty points on their competition.
