It was another crushingly dominant display from the Dutchman, who made light work of overtaking the likes o168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:f Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc, before he we✅nt sailing past teammate Pereꦦz to move into the lead on Lap 17. 

Analysing Versta🦩ppen’s commanding performance in his latest column for Skyౠ, Brundle made a comment that he acknowledged will feed conspiracy theorists. 

“Perez in the other R🐷ed Bull was 22 seconds behind, such was Verstappen's command over his ever-willing car,” Brundle wrote. 

“W♋hen Max caught Sergio it was as if he was in a different car (that one is for the conspiracy theorists to seize on) because he was able to take tighter lines and still get better exit traction. 

“He's found a way to carry speed while 🌄continuing to babysit the Pirellis. It's a touch, feel, and finesse that's very difficult to learn and achieve in my experience.”

Verstappen heads into the F1 summer break hold🍒ing a whopping 125-point lead over Perez in the championship. 

However, the two-time world champion’s weekend was overshadowed by a series of awkward team radio🐈 exchanges with Red Bull race engineer Gian🀅piero Lambiase. 

Verstappen snapped at Lambiase in an expletive-filled rant after narrowly reaching Q3 during Friday qual♒ifying, a reaction that Brundle feels was “telling”. 

He wrote: “It was telling that, despite his very commanding championship lead, he was quite upset on the radio about how that all played out, although his friend and engineer Gianpiero Lambiase firmly put that int꧋o perspective, not for the first time, or the last.”
