The “body language” of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen suggests his frustration at the F1 Spanish Grand Prix may have started earlier th🌌an initially thought.

Verstappen was involved in a contentious clash with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell last weekend in Barcelona which cost 🌄him a 10-secon𒈔d time penalty.

Rus༺sell was among seve𝕴ral inside the paddock who called it a deliberate act by Verstappen.

A day after his initially blun🎉t reaction, Verstappen admitted it should never have happened.

But it has been suggested that his annoyance in Spain started 24 hours before the grand 🧔prix.

“I actuall🌺y think it already started [on Saturday],” Naomi Schiff told Sky Sports.

“The body language of what he’s saying now…

“You could feel his energy i𒁏n the post-qualifying interview. He felt resigned about where they stood, and that McLaren were above the rest.”

Verstappen was dismissive about his hopes of retaining the drivers’ title in the aftermath of the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.

He is now 49 points behind championship leader Oscar Piastri in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 standings.

Max Verstappen theory: 'Is that why?'

“It’s interesting that he said his championship hopes were never alive,” Bernie Collins consid🌟ered.

“Is that why𓆉 he’s happy to give up those points and not settle for third or fourth?

“It was a good race by him until that point.

“They had a hard tyre because of the three-stop strategy. But that was ꧒surely discussed overnight.

“‘If we get a Safety Car, what are we going🉐 to do? Put on a very use🅺d soft or a hard tyre?’

“That should have been a part of the discussion, as wꦚell.

“It was the riꦺghtꦚ thing to stop. On those old tyres you are going to be overtaken.”

Nico Rosberg’s claim that Verstappen warranted a black flag was later dismi꧑ssed by C♈hristian Horner.

Rosberg reacted to the incident: “There is no need to discuss, it’s super obvious. He felt badly treated💟, even by his own team, because he was in the right.

“Russell’s car was out of control so he was ﷽allowed to stay in fro𒊎nt. His engineer said ‘give the position back’.

“That put the lion over the boiling point. He wanted to prove a point, against the rules also. He waited for him then ꩲtried to do the same as what George did to him - ram him.

“Except this time it was deliberate. It’s nꦰot acceptable𒉰, not allowed.”
