Max Verstappen appeared disinterested in discussing the inconsistencies in stewarding which will be raised during the drivers’ meeting in Mexico. Speaking to media, including Sportskeeda, ahead of the race, the Red Bull driver gave brief responses regarding his US GP incident with Lando Norris and the subsequent comments.
During their wheel-to-wheel battle, Verstappen defended by forcing Norris off-track, which led to the McLaren driver overtaking outside the white line. Norris received a penalty after not giving the position back, costing him a potential third-place finish.
George Russell mentioned that the GPDA would address the stewarding inconsistencies and Verstappen’s penalty for swearing in a separate meeting. However, Verstappen dismissed any concerns, including the swearing penalty, and expressed amusement at opinions suggesting he forced Norris off track intentionally.
