Max Verstappen won’t change style despite threat of F1 ban
Despite edging closer to a potential F1 race ban, Max Verstappen🍷 has no plans to change his approach.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen insists he will not change how he races his F1 rivals despite the looming possibility o🌠f 🐭a ban in 2025.
A total of 12 penalty points accrued over a 12-month period triggers an automatic one-race ban, something which happened last year when former Haas driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen was forced to sit out of the Azerbai𓆏jan Grand Prix.
Four-time world champion Verstappen has eight points on his FIA Super Licence and is just four points shy 🌳of rec♕eiving a ban.
The Red Bull driver must carefully navigate the first 11 rounds of the 20🏅25 season before two penalty points will expire on 30 June.
Ho🦹wever, Verstappen insisted he won’t cha▨nge his approach or driving style.
“I won’t change my driving style because of that,” Ver🌳stappen told . “I know when I’v♛e gone too far.
“Like at the finale in Abu Dhabi when I attacked Piastri at the start. I had no pᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚroblem apologising to [him] after the race.”
He added: “If you spur my ambition, thi⛎ngs can get🔜 going.
𒐪“We could discuss some of the penalties and the points for hours. Now, like Alonso, I already have eight pen⛎alty points. But I’m [not] going to change my driving style.”
Red Bull advisor Helmut Ma✨rko admitted Verstappen will need to be “careful” to avoid a ban in the coming months.
“He got two points againℱ and is now on eight, we have to be careful,” Marko told Sky D𒁏eutschland after the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
“Certain stewards give more severe punishments🐻, but that’s a problem that everyone has and it was mentioned that more consistency would be better.🎶”
