MAX VERSTAPPEN SAID he is a “three-time world champion who knows what I’m doing” after Damon Hill accused him of acting like Wacky Races villain Dick Dastardly.
Responding to Hill’s comments, Verstappen said: “I don’t listen to those individuals. I just do my thing. I’m a three-time world champion. It’s my 10th year in Formula One. I know what I’m doing. The drivers are due to meet at the penultimate round in Qatar to iron out the rules of combat with F1’s regulator, the FIA.
Norris finished second in Mexico City, with Verstappen only able to manage sixth, allowing the British driver to move to 47 points behind in the title race with 120 to play for. “We’ve not spoken and I don’t think we need to,” he said. “I’ve got nothing to say. I still have a lot of respect for Max and everything he does. Not respect for what he did last weekend, but respect for him as a person and what he has achieved.
