“All that’s missing is t🐈hat they get the fists out! It’s more than a niggle,” Nico Rosberg analysed for Sky Sports.
“It’s thrilling to watch from the outside. From the inside, trust me, it’s🔯 horrible!
“It’s so consuming. The teams get involved, the team bosses start fighting, Toto Wolff and Christian Horner got into💟 a renewed fight over this, your family gets involve♓d…
“Internally, it is incredibly intens༺e and stressful.
“There are two siღdes - Max is the streetfighter who thinks he’s the king now, and above the law.
“George, like the Dutch would say, needs to go 𒉰back in his pram and you need to give him a toy!
“Honestly, I think it’s 50-50.”
Rosberg add⛄ed: “Max said he’d put George’s head in a wall so there’s no more cordial stuff!”
It was swiftly noted that Verstappen’s version of events d🃏id not include that brutal comm🔜ent.
But Rosberg has his doubts.
“We’re talking about Max w𝓰ho told all the journalists in the room: ‘If one more person mentions it, I’m going to headbutt you’,” Rosberg said, referring to a 2018 press conference.
