Legendary F1 commentator Martin Brundle believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen was “lucky” to avoid a more severe penalty for his aggressive driving against 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris at the Mexico City Grand Prix.

Verstappen received two 10-second time penalties in Mexico for sepa🎉rate incidents with his title rival.

The first happened at Turn 4 as Norris attemptไed to 𒁃overtake Verstappen around the outside.

Verstappen pus♉hed Norris off the corner, but the batt𒊎le didn’t stop there, as the Dutchman lunged down the inside of the fast left-hander at Turn 7.

The three-time world champi꧑oꦏn was handed 20 seconds worth of penalties, ultimately dropping him down the order before finishing sixth.

Brundle gave his opinion onও the two incidents during Sky’s post-race covera🧔ge.

“[The Turn 7 in🐽cident] is just a red mist moment, and actually a ridiculous moment,” B🦩rundle said.

“He took the pair of them off, and he was lucky he didn💞'ඣt get a drive through penalty or something.

“I'm so in awe o🐻f Max, and I hate ꦚit when he does that sort of thing. He's better than that. He's too good.”

Brundle added: “I think he's carrying frustration because he's🅺 got the third fastest car at the moment.

“We know he's feisty, and we know he's aggressive - and thꦚat's what you want, we're about that - ꧟but there is a limit. That second incident was way past the limit.

“If he keeps getting penal♛ties, he'll ha♛ve to tame it.”

With four rounds to go, Verstappe𝔍n is 47 points ahead of Norris in the F1 drivers’ championship.
