Verstappen's dad: "Max showed who the KING is"

Verstappen Papa: „Max hat gezeigt, wer der KÖNIG ist”

And he added that "the British can now be calm" - these are strong words, but if we consider the events and punishments of the last few weeks, as well as the statements, it is not certain that they arose without reason.

Max Verstappen achieved a sensational victory at the Brazilian Grand Prix despite all the factors holding him back. At the post-race press conference, he didn't forget to take a swipe at the journalists, especially the sedentary British media. He was content with that much "revenge," but his father, Jos Verstappen, went further:

"They did everything they could to throw him off his form and his good mood, but I would like to point out that they are only motivating him and making him stronger! This victory was the perfect answer to the British, I hope every commentator and journalist will now shut up!

And to those who say he needs to change his style, I say: his driving style is perfect. He gained six places on the first lap; what he's doing in these conditions is phenomenal. But I already knew that, because we've worked hard on this skill together. I'm very proud of what he showed today, and now the whole world has seen who the best driver in Formula 1 is!" - the elder Verstappen used grand words.
