168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris has been advised to get his “elbows out” at Silverstone if another battle with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen kicks off.

Norris was left fuming with his friend Verstappen after contact at the Austrian Grand Prix last weekend ended his promising race premat🦂urely.

It was - not for the first time - an uncompromising moment of driving for Verstappen who was hit with a 10-second time penalty, but walked away from Austria with his 𝔉championship lead extenꦑded from second-placed Norris.

“We’ve seen over the past few years that Max is a tough racer, an🌱 uncompromi﷽sing racer, in the same way that Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna were before,” Karun Chandhok told Sky Sports.

“Lando will be mindful of that.

“There’s no doubt that, in that certain incident, ♛Max was the one who moved and deviated from his line. Heꦉ moved to the left-hand side.

“But he’s not the 🦹first to do that. We saw in the🥂 previous year with Carlos Sainz and Max.

“We saw it with Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton. The🅺y avoided contact.

“It felt like a clumsy touch. Max was trying to squeeze Lando out, to make sure Land🐷o didn’t get a run for the next corner. I think that’s what happe๊ned.

“Max deservedly took the blame and the penalty.

“Iꦺt’ll♛ be in the back of Lando’s mind, the next time they go wheel to wheel. Does he have to give Max more room than other drivers?”

The question was posed: does Red Bull’s Verstappen intentionallဣy seek an ‘intimidation factor’ against his close riv🌄als?

Chandhok answered: “I think he’s achieved that.

“Various drivers, including Hamilton, said ‘you🔯 think differently when you r🔴ace Max’.

“That’s what Senna, Schumacher and the greats did. They ♒get into the minds of their rivals even before they come side by side, whee𝔍l to wheel.”

Chandhok said about their scrap last weekend: “This was different to Lewis at S♒ilverstone in 2021 when he put the nose in, and said ‘I am not giving in’.

“It was two drivers trying to get on the same bit oꦛf tarmac in an awkward way. It 🎐was a clumsy tangle of the rear wheel.”

Crucia🍰lly McLaren driver Norris has been told to fight🐼 fire with fire at this weekend’s F1 British Grand Prix.

Chandhok said: “Lando was𒀰 a genuine contender for victory in the last three races, but hasn’t won in the last three races.

“A home 🔯victory at the British Grand Prix? Going wheel to wheel with Max? I expect to see his elbows out a bit more.”
