|    Verstappens vs The British    |
|    01 Mar 25 12:02:59    |
      From: vintageapplemac@gmail.com              So, after the booing at the launch shindig, Jos ran his mouth off on       behalf of his son, saying that he'll not be attending future events in       England, and generally sounding off about Brit-bias. This came up time and       again last season, the Verstappens would routinely call out the British       press/media/fans as anti-Dutch.              Now, you didn't ever hear so much of that kind of thing when Max was       dominant, it seemed to come to the fore once his car started to let him       down, and then he got rattled and started driving in to and clashing with       other drivers, too; the Norris incident, the Russell spat.              So, is Max already rattled before the season has even started? I watched a       bit of the testing this week, and what I saw and heard didn't suggest Red       Bull have pulled it together and given him another dream car to drive.              He's got a hefty amount of points on his super licence and needs to keep       his nose clean until June before some of them are wiped off. If he's got a       gash car, I don't think he'll be able to keep it in check; he's proven       that he's got a shocking tempremant. Between on-track shenanigans and       swearing in interviews, I reckon a race ban is almost nailed on for him at       some point in the first half of the season.              He's a great driver, don't get me wrong, but he is a petulant, spoiled       child, and there will be fireworks at some point!              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
