He always comes across as a bit of a bellend, cam't see him and Toto going out for a beer anytime soon?
Probably doesn't help that Sky pamper to Horner. Putting someone so unlikable on a pedestal only helps to make them even worse.
So Max is angry and cussing again....this time at his team, i guess because he was outqualified by his teammate again. And he sees his cussing and ranting as NORMAL. Well i wonder what will happen in 2019...Honda beware! It will be s **** storm of he has to deal with what McLaren went through. That should be interesting. People will have to walk with bodyguards and keep their helmets on just in case of the headbutts... Verstappen rages at Red Bull after 'f***ing disaster' quali Today, 17:03 , by Matthew Scott Max Verstappen was left furious after a "f***ing disaster" of a qualifying session for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which he put down to his Red Bull team putting him out on track with overheated tyres. Verstappen qualified sixth at the Yas Marina Circuit, behind teammate Daniel Ricciardo. Verstappen's struggles were not limited to the top-10 shootout as a failure to get a good enough time in Q2 on ultrasoft tyres left him needing to salvage a Q3 spot on hypersofts – meaning he will start the race on the more fragile tyre. The five drivers ahead will all start on the harder compound, meaning they can run longer into the race. Verstappen issued a foul-mouthed summary of things to his team at the end of Q3 and later said his frustrations were amplified in the heat of the moment. Qualifying didn’t go to plan. Hopefully our car balance is a bit better tomorrow. We’ll try our best to move forward during the race! "It's just a natural reaction," Verstappen said. "I lost the car, I went off, so I was just disappointed I couldn't finish that lap. "It was just in the heat of the moment as it was just not our qualifying. I could feel straightaway I was sliding too much then of course you keep on trying and trying and it's not working and when I went off I was like 'Ah for **** sake'. "They were a bit hot. I think they were too hot already before and I said maybe we should do something a little bit different. "I went out of the box and they were even warmer so then I had to slow down even more and then at one point you can't heat up your brakes like you want to into turn 1 and stuff so yeah, it all got a bit compromised.
There’s nothing wrong with racing spirit and a bit of telling it as it is from time to time, but isn’t it funny how it’s never Max’s fault in his eyes? A bell end of the absolute highest order. Honda will need significant, and I mean SIGNIFICANT improvement next year to shut his claptrap firmly up. I’d give him some leniency if he seemed to be taking on board feedback, but he doesn’t. Who drove the ****ing outlap Max??!
PS I really hope Renault have sandbagged the second half of this year before delivering a top class engine next year that Renault Sport and McLaren challenge RBR with
The thing is i want him to do well but he is making himself quite unlikable. And i am sure thr other driver are a bit tired of his crap talk and when it comes.to crunch time they will not give him an inch ...he doesnt respect any of the other drivers but he wants them to respect him by using fear tactics... that never works. Already he is saying.they will be woried about him coming at thrm.in this race. So we could look out for a big accident..he wsnts to prove something to Ricciardo...lol
Who will be Max's victim this week, he's got good tyres and will want to make the most of them, so something risky early somewhere for sure.
