On this day, November 11, in 2018, Max Verstappen and Esteban Ocon clashed in an ill-tempered post-race altercation after the latter denied the former a second grand prix victory.
During the 2018 Brazilian Grand Prix, Max Verstappen looked set to win his second Grand Prix when a clash with Esteban Ocon altered the course of the race. Ocon, driving for Force India and two laps down, attempted to unlap himself against the race leader, leading to a collision at turn two. Verstappen’s spin allowed Lewis Hamilton to take the lead, and Verstappen expressed his frustration over the team radio. The stewards ultimately penalized Ocon with a 10-second stop-and-go penalty and three penalty points for causing the collision and fighting the leader for track position as a lapped car. The incident remains a memorable and contentious moment in modern F1 history.
