Palmer shocked by Verstappen's actions: 'Worst thing you can possibly do'

While analysing the Spanish Grand Prix on F1 TV, Palmer discussed one of the race's hottest topics: the collision between Verstappen and George Russell. He believes the Dutch driver was frustrated and therefore tried to make a point.

He said, "Now he's tickled the throttle, and he's now just diving in for what seems to me to be trying to prove a point on the racing guidelines here by being there on the apex, similar to what George had, which caused the collision in the first place and Max to go out wide."

He then became highly critical of Verstappen. "Fundamentally, this looks like a driver that is just frustrated, it's the red mist, he's angry inside the cockpit, but you can never use your car as a weapon to hit other cars."

Verstappen did receive a ten-second time penalty and now has 11 penalty points. If he is to earn another before the end of June, he will face a race ban.
