F1 commentator Martin Brundle doesn’t see 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen adjusting his approach toꦰ racing his rivals on-track despite changes to the regulations for the upcoming season.

Following a number of instances of Verstappen driving ag🦂gressively, the FIA chose to twea🔥k their rules at the end of last year.

Verstappen was heavily criticised for his robust defending against 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris at the United States and Mexico City races.

Verstappen was handed two 10-second tꦯime penalties 🐻for moves on Norris in Mexico.

The Dutchman stood by his actions, citing the fact that had he not driven like that, Norris might have beaten 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz to the win and thus his lead in the championship would 🍌have been reduced.

Verstappen was also penalised in the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix for colliding with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri at the first corner.

Looking ahead to☂ the new season, Brundle doubts Verstappen will drive any differently, particularly if the title is on the line.

“No. He will race exactly the same,” Brundle said to Sky Sports News. “That’s how he’s hard-wi𝄹red. That’s why he’s a four-time world champion. We saw against Lewis. We’ve seen ꦑit more recently against Lando.

“The more tense the🔴 championship gets, the more aggressive Max drives. He’s so clever. He’s skillful enoughꦐ to place the car.

“He knows the regulations inside out. He’s overly aggressive sometimesꦡ but makes it work for him.”

Verstappen close to a race ban

Due to the number of incident🔜s Verstappen was involved in during the back-end of last year, he’♕s not too far away from a race ban.

Verstappen currently has꧂ eight points - four 𒆙away from a one-race suspension.

Two of those points will expire at the end of June having been awarded them due to contact with Norris at the 𓃲Austrian Grand Prix.

The remꦏaining six won’t be removed until October, having occurred in the final chunk of last year.

Verstappen picked up two penalty points𓂃 for forcing Norris off the track in Mexico.

In Brazil, he picked up a single point for being underꦐ the minimum VSC delta time during the 🌺sprint.

He got another one in Qa♏tar for driving too slowly on a cooldown lap in qualifying.

Finally, he r𝕴eceived two points for the🍷 collision with Piastri in Abu Dhabi.

It means Verstappen will have to be on his best behaviour f🅷or the first half of the year, at leas♏t.
