Would this be the year when another Formula 1 driver finally ends the reign of Lewis Hamilton? Certainly, after the Monaco GP, it feels like it, as Max Verstappen ramps up the victory and overtakes Hamilton at the top of the Driver’s Standings to grab the numero uno spot. With this victory the Dutchman claims that his actions on the track are much louder than his words.
Before the Monaco Grand Prix, Max Verstappen was evidently criticized for making a lot of mistakes that was pulling the entire Red Bull Racing down, by a lot of F1 pundits and even Lewis Hamilton stated out the same. But it seems like the Dutchman has answered them all in the most emphatic of ways.

Asked how important it was to land such an important blow in the title race, Verstappen appeared to cryptically refer to the comments made by his rival.
“First of all, actions always speak louder than words,” Verstappen said.
“I think that is a good lesson after this weekend. You must talk on the track, and that is what I like.
“We as a team so far made the smallest mistakes, and that is why we are ahead. I hope we can keep that going for the rest of the season.”
The Red Bull driver remained focused on retaining the lead at the start, knowing the difficulty of passing in Monaco could make it hard to recover the lead.
“It has been an amazing day,” Verstappen said. “I think once we had the lead in Turn 1, from there onwards we could manage the pace quite well and look after the tyres.
“Around here it is about keeping them alive and try to go as long as you can and find the pit gap. I think Valtteri Bottas was struggling with his tyres and had to pit but of course it always looks like it is going quite smoothly.”
