The start from a different angle shows that Max Verstappen managed to avoid a possible crash. It’s a textbook example of erratic driving. Not to mention the rejoicing.

Im not even trolling here but surely that should have been a penalty deliberately trying to put him into the wall

Crazy move on the dirty side of the track, where you have no grip, with cold tyres and the car full of fuel.

definitely crazy for sure, thankfully it all worked out for us in the end

*rejoining

Imagine the scenes if max did that😂. So many people would be complaining

A Max fan talking about erratic driving when Max has made a career out of moves like that 😂

My guy this is literally the Max Verstappen special. This time you were just on the receiving end

He managed to avoid him twice, fia should have investigated Lando for rejoining the track and for putting others in risk.

A Max Verstappen fan account complaining about something like this is almost comedic

If piastri or max did this it would be a penalty no doubt and the media would of been talking about it non stop

max fan talking about erratic driving 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Do you think that deserves a penalty? I have no clue about some racing rules

For erratic driving, drivers normally receive a penalty. The same goes for dangerous rejoining, like Lando did later. In both cases Max had to avoid him, otherwise it would have resulted in a crash.

how ironic a max fan talking about "eratic driving" lando was already clear, nothing wrong with the cut

Erratic driving Hmmm where have I seen that before

Norris driving dangerously but it’s little Lando so that’s ok.

100% if that was the other way round Lando would’ve been straight on the radio saying ‘he’s crazy he tried to throw me into the wall’ and it would’ve been referred to the stewards, guarantee.

Nothing wrong with that move. Jesus. Why are so many Max and Norris fans so terrible? Like football fans that blame everything that happens on someone else, even when nothing happens. Max would have done the same and I’d have applauded him. Difference is Max would’ve held it.

Some max fans are literally brain dead. That’s max whole flow doing moves like lando did here and they don’t like it when someone else do it.

The thing is… max has gotten away with this style of driving for years, pushing other drivers off track and no penalty. Why is it a problem when someone throws his racing style back in his face?

😂 please come on now. Your content is normally so balanced, well thought out and considered. Why this week have you drifted over to the dark side of the Verstappen fan base? Max has done the same thing numerous times. Yet when he does it’s ok? Lando had literally been run off the racetrack onto the grass this season by having this done to him. But then it was “strategic, fair and agressive” (Oscar was the culprit I believe) The total hypocrisy I’ve seen in the timeline the last few days is just maddening.

I don't want to be a pain, but this is how Max usually starts his races. So complaining about it now is a bit dubious.

If Max did this the British would be crying for his first born

I honestly thought he was going to do a Vettel in Singapore

What a brilliant evasive maneuver and switch to the cross line! If the roles had been reversed, McLaren, along with the British media and former drivers, would have been making a huge fuss about it being a dangerous blocking maneuver!

All these people crying in the comments when even Lando admitted it was embarrassing. Bunch of 🤡🤡🤡

ironically for Hamilton he was safer at the back and other's were safe from his Mexico style squeezes.

But people say Max is aggressive 🤔

Looks like the MV signature move. Why do you have a problem with it now

If that was max doing that move lando did. Everyone would be calling for penalties and dsq but because it’s lando it’s “aggressive defensive driving”

How the f*ck that's not given a penalty? Well. No matter. Double papaya DSQ neutralized it.

Also textbook how it got praised and the ‘oh shucks oh my he went a bit wide’ Actually surprised Crofty and co did not come out and say he did that on purpose to warm his tyres better and was all planned

From this angle it looks even wilder I understand why Max had to count to 10 after that 😭

Taking them both out was better for Lando, its as simple as that. He knew about the plank and the possible DSQ for PIA.

Just shut up. Max literally applauded Lando for the move and max pulls shit like tbat all the time. So genuinely just shut up and het a life. If max did this you would be glazing him for it

Also nothing wrong with his rejoin either, he didnt enter the track in a dangerous manner, didnt cut anyone up and kept it clean all the way through.

That was my first thought too. It was scary he almost took Max out

The result of someone who knows they won't get penalised by the stewards.
