In the end, it doesn’t matter. Of course I wasn’t happy with what happened. I’m still not. I don’t think it was my fault. I gave him a lot of space and in the end he drove with understeer into my car. 

“Of course it’s a pity we lost so many points. Now we have to make sure we get a lot of points back this weekend [in Hungary],” Verstappen concluded.
