After taking a dominant fourth victory of the season at the Red Bull Ring, Verstappenಌ slowed down on the main straight as he crossed the line to complete a burnout in celebration in front of 🔯his team on the pit wall.

While drivers are allowed to celebrate wins and often weave across the start-finish straight or perform doughnuts, FIA race director M🎀ichael Masi was not impressed by Verstappen’s actions.

Masi revealed after the race that race control looked at Verstappen’s celebration straight away and informed Red Bull that a repeat w🐻ould not be accepted in future.

Asked if Verstappen’s celebration was looked𒀰 at by race control, Masi replied: “Yes I did, as soon as it happened.

“It🍬 was not an ideal situation, which is why I spoke to the team immediately and told them accordingly, that it’s something that would not be tolerated 𒁃in the future.”
