Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez chatted about their late battle for the fastest lap of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix as they waited for the podium after the race.
Perez started on pole and won the race – only briefly ceding the lead to Fernando Alonso who got a good start off the line. He soon took first place back and led for the rest of the race, finishing a little over five seconds ahead of his Red Bull team-mate.
The fact Verstappen got so close was impressive considering he had started from 15th place. The win was beyond him, but he did get one over Perez by pushing all-out on the final lap of the race to set the fastest time – and steal the extra point that comes with it.
