Legendary F1 commentator Martin Brundle believes 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen was “lucky” to avoid a more severe penalty for his aggressive driving against 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris at the Mexico City Grand Prix.

Verstappen received two 10-second time penaltieꦡs in Mexico for separate incidents ♌with his title rival.

The first happened at Turn 4 as Norris attempted to overtake Verstappen around the outside💮🔯.

Verstappen pushed Norris off the corner, but the battle didn’t🧔 stop there, as the Dutchman lunged down the inside of the fast left-hander at Turn 7.

The three-time world chaౠmpion was handed 20 seconds worth of penalties, ultimately dropping him down the order before finishing sixth.

Brundle gave his opinion on the two incidents during Sky’s post-race covera♓ge.

“[The Turn 7 incident] is just a red mist🍰 moment, and actually a ridiculous moment,” Brundle said.

“He took the pair of them off, an﷽d he was lucky he ♐didn't get a drive through penalty or something.

“I'm so in awe of Max, and I hate it when he does that sort of thing. He's better than 🐬t💦hat. He's too good.”

Brundle added: “I think he's🅷 carrying frustration because he's got the third fastest car at the moment.

𒁏“We know he's feisty, and we know he's aggressive - and that's what you want, we're about that - but there is ꦿa limit. That second incident was way past the limit.

“If he keeps ge♚tting penalties, he'll🦄 have to tame it.”

With four rounds to go, Verstappen is 47 points ahe𓄧ad of Norris in the F1 drivers’ championship.
