The drive of a champion has been praised by a champion who had previously been very critical.
Former F1 world champion Damon Hill praised Max Verstappen for putting an end to Red Bull’s winless streak with his victory at the São Paulo Grand Prix. Hill had criticized Verstappen for using “fear” and “intimidation” in Mexico City, but saw a different, more composed performance at Interlagos. Verstappen’s dominant win has put him in a strong position to potentially clinch his fourth world championship in Las Vegas. Despite facing challenges with the RB20, Red Bull’s victory brought great relief and joy to the team, according to Hill. Verstappen’s ability to handle competition and pressure this season has impressed many, and he now sits on the verge of another title triumph.
