Absolutely. I agree 100%. You will always defend your countryman instead of the other. But you also try to keep it as neutral as possible and some countries go overboard with it. In the end, they can say and shout whatever they want. It doesn’t matter to me.Max Verstappen via Viaplay

The race is usually quite close here and obviously very hot and humid.
