168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen has been praised for winning the F1 title in spite of Red Bull’s messy inter🐓nal drama.

The scandal at the start of this year which involved Ch♓ristian Horner 💙threatened to interrupt Red Bull’s dominance.

Jos Verstappen,🅠 their star driver’s father, waded in anไd demanded Horner exit the team as tensions hit boiling point.

But Verstappen kept a cꦇool head to del💛iver his fourth title in a row at the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.

“All of that going on, off-track, is difficult for a driver,” Jenson Butt🍬on said to Sky Sports.

“But having a family member involved as well? Mentally it is really difficu🎉lt.

“That shows the strength of Maxꦆ be⛦cause most racing drivers would struggle.”

Danica Patrick added: “The good thing as a driver? That’s all you have toꦗ deal with.

“Everyone else deals wit⛎h the drama and you focus on being a driver. That doesn’t mean it’s easy to do that. But it’s your only job.

“You can’t🐻 control what everyone else does an🧔d says.

“Getting on with the job 💎as a driver is your foജcus.

“This❀ season was a demonstration of leaders♑hip, talent and will.

“The gap between him and Checo, t꧙hey🦩 were so much closer in year’s past and it has grown.

“He took a car which was winning, to not winning, then having a🐲 performance like in Brazil.

“It shows his maturity and leadership, and his ability to get 💫more 𝐆out of the car.”

Verstappen’s own futu🦄re at Red Bull came into question during the internal rumblings that involved h๊is father and Horner.

He was linked🌱 to Mercedes at the time - and those whispers about a Red Bull exit have not yet fully disappeared.

But in Las Vegas none of these issues mattered as he cruised to P5, enoug🦂h to make his lead in the drivers’ standings insurmountable with two rounds to go.
