Max Verstappen has been "very fair and professional" in his on-track battles while defending his Formula 1 title this season, according to Martin Brundle.
The Dutchman became world champion for the first time last year, eventually snatching the crown from Lewis Hamilton in controversial circumstances. Even before that acrimonious ending, things got heated between them as they gave everything to be the one to come out on top.
Verstappen in particular came in for some stick for what some people felt were overly-aggressive moves when defending against the Mercedes man. One such incident came at the Brazilian Grand Prix, when the Red Bull star was accused of forcing his rival off-track when trying to stop an overtake.
