Max Verstappen painted a furious figure after finishing second in the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
Max Verstappen interrupted his post-race parc fermé interview due to a penalty received at the beginning of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. Despite starting from pole position, Verstappen cut corners and claimed that Oscar Piastri left him with no room, leading to a time penalty. This penalty forced him to serve the five-second penalty during his pit stop, causing him to lose the lead to Piastri and finish in second place. Verstappen, visibly frustrated, chose not to elaborate on the incident and thanked the fans in Jeddah before expressing his excitement for the upcoming race in Miami. His missed opportunity to win the race has resulted in him dropping to third place in the F1 drivers’ standings.
