Max Verstappen on Mercedes protest: “Can work for me or against me”

Max Verstappen

Max Verstappen is the new Formula 1 World Champion and the first ever Dutchman to register himself in the history books. Winning his maiden world championship in the most controversial way, Mercedes cannot digest the fact that Hamilton’s effort has been over-shadowed by the triumph of the Dutchman. But the only talking point, has been the protest and official complaint filed by the Brackley based team. 

According to Mercedes, Max Verstappen overtook his rival Lewis Hamilton behind the safety car and the car also came in too early. Because a number of lapped cars were allowed to overtake behind the safety car, Verstappen ended up right behind Hamilton’s car for the restart.

“Everything was clear. When it’s clear you have to release the track. That is a fair point from race direction. It can work for me and against me,” Verstappen told the press conference broadcast by Sky Sports as per GPBlogs

Max Verstappen didn’t reveal much about the protest, as he clearly seemed to disagree with it. “Not much really to say. It sums up the season,” said the Dutchman.
