MAx Verstappen and Lando Norris are fighting to win the world championship. It seems that no one will be able to get to the Netherlands from the top, but the McLaren team is getting closer and closer in general and only 47 points separate it from the first place. This is a fight between two friends off the track, but once they got into the cars they put their personal relationship aside. In recent tests, this has become more than obvious, especially due to the aggressiveness of Red Bull.

The Englishman recalls on several occasions, what many of his colleagues on the grid have already said several times, that as soon as they get dressed and put on their helmets, they forget about all their friendships and only think about beating everyone they meet on the track. From Monday, The one who seems to forget friendship the most during the competition is ‘1’, so much so that he was penalized for 20 seconds in his last episode against papaya, and from that moment in Mexico they never spoke again.

The rivalry between them increasingly goes to the lady

Earlier this season, where they struggled to win first place, Lando and Max still maintained a good relationship and traveled together to all the Grand Prix races, as they always did. After his last fight on the track, something changed. “We didn’t talk. I don’t think it’s necessary, I have nothing to say, ” commented ‘4’ upon arrival in Brazil.

After the McLaren driver received a bullmik sansin in Austin for overtaking neerlands, as the FIA considered that he benefited from being overtaken off the track, in the last test it was Red Bull’s turn. In this case, Max had two fights with the ranked second in which he was off the track and fell a perfect 20 seconds. “Max knows what he has to do, he knows that he did something wrong. Deep down, he knows that and it’s up to him to change.”, Confirms Landau.

There are still four major races left until the championship is over, and in Brazil the Milton Keynes team will be punished, so the World Cup is getting tighter. Despite all these friction on the track, the Englishman maintains respect for his friend: “I still have a lot of respect for Max and everything he does. I don’t respect what he did last weekend, but I respect him as a person and also for what he achieved.”. The fight that both starred in the Rodriguez brothers circuit, is not the last we see this season, because both are playing everything in these last races and the tension is high.
