Mercedes boss Toto Wolff is closer than ever to the supremely dominant Hamilton while Red Bull's Christian Horner is protective of the prodigiously talented Verstappen, who remains the youngest driver to start in F1 at age 17, and the youngest to win a race at 18.
"Tensions are running and they're going for the biggest prize in the sport," Horner said. " close-quarter and no-quarter racing going on between them." But now the quick and fearless Verstappen has emerged as a major threat to Hamilton. He also has more pole positions and fastest laps than Hamilton this season.
He felt Red Bull's comments about Hamilton's driving had been "below the belt" but stopped short of further criticism, mindful of the damage social networks can cause as a result. "Our frustration was at the size of the penalty compared to the outcome of the decision," he said. "A crash that would have knocked out your average human being. We've lost a car in its entirety in a budget cap environment."Horner again took a swipe at Hamilton, saying he knew he would have not won had Verstappen not crashed at Copse corner.
