MAX VERSTAPPEN reignited his feud with Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez by telling F1’s number two drivers to “accept” they are second best. Verstappen claims things go “completely wrong” if team No2s live in a “fairytale world” of not agreeing their partner is “just a bit better”. Verstappen ignored team orders to let Perez pass him for fourth place, having warned before the race he would not make way. “You just have to accept that the driver next to you is just a bit better. Some drivers can’t do that and then it goes completely wrong. I’m not going to name names, but you have to accept your role.
