Max Verstappen in furious outburst as he went wheel to wheel with Lewis Hamilton

Max Verstappen directed a verbal volley at his Red Bull team after being overtaken by Lewis Hamilton following a poorly-timed pit stop in the Canadian Grand Prix.

Verstappen started the race on pole and did a good job of maintaining his lead during the early stages of the race. Virtual safety cars after Sergio Perez (Red Bull) and Mick Schumacher (Haas) broke down and a safety car for a crash by Yuki Tsunoda (AlphaTauri) mixed things up to make things interesting.

The defending champion, who came into the Canadian GP with a 21-point lead at the top of the standings, was called in by Red Bull for a pit stop midway through the race. It looked to be a good call by Verstappen’s tacticians and his engineers also got the Dutchman away without too much fuss in the pit lane.
