The “body language” of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen suggests his frustration at the F1 Spanish Grand Prix may have started earlier than initial💖ly thought.

Verstappen was involved in a contentious clash with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell last weekend in Barcel🧜ona which cost him a 10-second time penalty.

Russell was among 💮several inside the paddock who called 🐼it a deliberate act by Verstappen.

A day after hi𝔉s initially blunt reaction, Verstappen admitted it shouꦛld never have happened.

But iღt has bee🍸n suggested that his annoyance in Spain started 24 hours before the grand prix.

“I actual🗹ly think it already started [on Saturday],”ﷺ Naomi Schiff told Sky Sports.

“The body language of what he’s saying now…

“You could feel his energy in the post-qualifying interview. He felt resigned about where they stood, and that McL🐼aren were above the🐽 rest.”

Verstappen was dismissive about his hopes of retaining the drivers’ title in the aftermath of the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.

He is now 49 points behind championship leader Oscar Piastri in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 standings.

Max Verstappen theory: 'Is that why?'

“It’s interesting that 🐠he said his championship hopes were never alive,” Bernie Co🍰llins considered.

“Is that why he’s happy to give 🦄up those points and not settle for third or fourth?

“It was a good race by him until that point.

“They had a hard tyre because of the three-stop strategy. But t📖hat was surely discussed overnight.

“‘If we get a Safety Car, what are we going to do? Put ✱on a very used soft or a hard tyre?’

“That should ꧂have been a part of the discussion, as well.

“It wa๊s the right thing to stop. On those old tyres you are going to be ove♌rtaken.”

Nico Rosberg’s claim that Verstappen warranted a black flag was later dismissed by Christi♈an Horn🎀er.

Rosberg reacted to the incident: “There is no need to discuss, it’s super obvious. He felt badly treate💜d, even by his own🐬 team, because he was in the right.

“Russell’s car was out of control so he was allowed to ﷽stay in front. His engineer said ‘g൩ive the position back’.

“That put the lion over the boiling point. He wanted to prove a point, against the rules also. He waited for him♒ then tried toꦐ do the same as what George did to him - ram him.

“Except this time it wa𝐆s deliberate. It’s not ac🥀ceptable, not allowed.”
