The Dutchman was met with a chorus of boos after securing the United States Grand Prix victory.
Max Verstappen embraces the hostile reception from fans at the Circuit of the Americas after his victory in the United States Grand Prix, stating that he’s the one who takes the silverware home. Despite being met with boos during his parc fermé interview, podium ceremony, and trophy presentation, Verstappen remains unfazed. Speculation suggests that the booing may have been directed towards Texas Governor Greg Abbott, but the persistence of the vitriol directed at Verstappen indicates otherwise. The rivalry between Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton has created a partisan atmosphere throughout the 2021 season, with both drivers being targeted by fans. Additionally, Verstappen had to contend with a large presence of Mexican fans supporting teammate Sergio Perez, which may continue at the upcoming Mexican Grand Prix. Nonetheless, Verstappen remains confident, stating that in the end, he’s the one bringing the silverware home.
