2016 Formula 1 champion Nico Rosberg argued that Red Bull driver Max Verstappen was lucky to avoid triggering a multi-car pile-up during his opening-lap crash at the Dutch Grand Prix.
The four-time champion suffered a violent crash on the first lap of his home grand prix in damp conditions, which triggered the red flag and ended his race early. Luckily, no other driver was caught up in the crash, although Audi's Gabriel Bortoleto spun behind Verstappen in an unrelated incident and managed to continue.
