Hamilton/Verstappen share ‘tremendous respect’
Date published:
Alex Wurz, chairman of the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association, insists there is a mutual underlying “respect” between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen.
Relations between the two World Championship contenders have been strained by their collision on the opening lap of the British Grand Prix, which resulted in Verstappen being taken to hospital and Hamilton winning the race despite receiving a 10-second penalty.
Hamilton then referred to his Dutch rival’s aggression, while Verstappen hit out via social media at the seven-time World Champion’s post-race celebrations which he termed “disrespectful” at a time when he had been undergoing those medical checks.
