Max🐼 Verstappen’s F♛ormula 1 rivals have been urged to copy his cheeky - but legal - tactic when starting races.

The Red Bull driver was noted by race control when he was seemingly positi🌼oned outside of h🐈is grid box at the beginning of Saturday’s sprint race at the F1 Miami Grand Prix.

However, he was not inv🌜estigated and not penalise♔d.

“We had a look and thought he was out of position, but the stewards said ‘no further action’,” said confused𒆙 Sky Sports commentator David Croft.

“Surely that’s too far forward?”

Martin Brundle said: “It looks very similar to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris in Bahrain.

“♍If he wasn’t, they should all be that far forward on every start, at every grand prix.

“You can gain a third of a metre. He probably had contact with the whitꦰe line. If that’s the story, everybody must go right to the front of their start boxes.”

McLaren’s Norris was hit with a fiꩵve-second time penalty for a false start earlier this season at the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix.

But 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Verstappen’s start in Miami on Saturday was ruled legal despite initial൲ly𒊎 raising eyebrows.

Verstappen bluntly described his start as “on the edge🧸”.

Norris was asked to reflect on his F1 title rival fi🌄nding gains with his starting position.

“Well, 𒁏if he was fine, then it was fine,” Norris🧸 told Sky Sports.

“If he wants to take those risks, then he can!”

Verstappen was later hit with a seꦺparate FIA punishment in the Miam𝔉i sprint race.

A collision with Mercedes driver Andrea Kimi Antonelli in the pits resulted in Red Bull being investigat🌊ed.

It was deemed unsafe by the stewards, and Verstappen was given a 10-second time penalty. He finished 17th, later insisting he was just 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:happy that nobody got hurt in the clas🦹h.

Toto Wolff and Christian Horner also aired their 🃏contrasting views on the pitlane incident.
