It was another crushingly dominant display from the Dutchman, who made light work of overtaking the likes o168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:f Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc, before he went sailing past t💦eammate Perez to move into the lead o꧋n Lap 17. 

Ana🗹lysing Verstappen’s commanding performance in his latest column for Sky, Bru✤ndle made a comment that he acknowledged will feed conspiracy theorists. 

“Perez in the other Red Bu🥃ll was 22 seconds behind, such was Verstapܫpen's command over his ever-willing car,” Brundle wrote. 

“When 🌄Max caught Sergio it was as if he was in a different car (that one is for the conspiracy theorists to seize on) because he was able to take tighter lines ♔and still get better exit traction. 

“He's found a way to carry speed while continuing to babysit the Pirellis. It's a touch, feel🔴, and f♎inesse that's very difficult to learn and achieve in my experience.”

However, the two-time world champion’s weekend was overshadowed by a series of awkward te🐼am radio exchanges with Red Bull race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase. 

Verstappen snapped at Lambiase in an expletive-filled rant after narrowly reaching Q3 during Friday qualifying, a reaction that Brundle feels was “tell🎶ing”. 

He wrote: “It was telling that, despite hꦜis very commanding championship lead, he was quite upset on the radio about how that all played out, although his friend and engineer Gianpiero Lambiase firmly put that into perspective, not for the first tim๊e, or the last.”
