"because i'm dutch" (brazil, 2016)

Truth be told I was expecting it to happen at some point and it felt like something like this would happen sooner rather than later.

I wasn’t able to watch the race too intently as I was out with my friend, but I’ve seen the clips.

I think it’s hard racing for the most part but I am of the opinion that moving under braking is a big no-no, purely because it’s so dangerous with the closing speeds of an F1 car, and the likelihood of having a crash that goes airborne.

I just think that this race doesn’t make Verstappen look too good, it is very much reminiscent of 2021 (hence why I expected that we might see a repeat once things got more competitive). I think that moving under braking should be penalised properly to prevent these manoeuvres before there’s a more dangerous collision.

I think it’s okayish, to defend strongly, whether that involves pushing another driver off track but jerking across in front of another car is something that I very much draw the line.

I think this was a situation where hindsight really highlights how much better he would have been waiting a bit, especially as the McLaren is better on tyres, I think this is something that’ll come with time, knowing when to attack and where to hold back.
