The 22-year-old Verstappen used the word 'cheating' in an interview with Dutch television.

The Dutch youngster suggested at this month's US Grand Prix that Ferrari's poor performance in Austin was linked to Formula One's governing body closing a potential engine loophole."I think everybody is free to say what they want. I don’t think anybody in the team took it personally," Vettel told reporters at the Brazilian Grand Prix, the penultimate race of the season, when asked for a reaction.

"Calling it that far I think is not right. But again, live and let live. If that’s what he thinks, that’s what he thinks. If next week he thinks something different, then, in the end, we don’t care so much." Vettel blamed setup problems for the drop in performanec, and expected the Italian team to be challenging for victory again at Interlagos on Sunday.
