Red Bull’s Max Verstappen 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:called H൲amilton a “stupid idi🍷ot” over team radio after the two Fꦕ1 championship rivals raced side by side down the main straight during second practice in the United States two week🅠s ago. 

H༒amilton comments ahead of this weekend’s Mexican Grand Prix appeared to be a thinly-veiled dig at Verstappen in response to the Dutchman’s recent remarks. 

“I think at the core of everythi🥃ng, there has to be respect,” Hamilton said when asked how he is avoiding making his title battle with Verstappen p♎ersonal. 

“When I think about, and I hear the thingsไ that come out of drivers’ mouths, I do think about young kids. They are watching us and they are looking to us for inspiration and for guidance.

“There has been a lot of things༒ that have been said, which is definitely not good for young kids that are watching. 

“For me, I just trying to remain positive and keep cal꧃m, and again, just be respectful to the drivers that I am fighting regardless. 

“꧑If I have a name in my head of what I think they are, I don’t share that. But it’s pretty easy for me. You laugh it off, and you move forwards.”

Verstappen heads into t🅺he final five races of the season holding a 12-point championship lead over Hamilton, with a 133 points still left up for grabs.

Seven-time world ꧋champion Hamilton is eyeing a record eighth world title, while Verstappen - who is 12 years his junior - is fighting for his m♔aiden F1 championship. 

“I have been here a long time, I learned a lot in my time,” Hamilton added.🌳 “And also, I know, Max has not won a championship in a long, long time.

“So I know what it’s like go🧔ing for your first chꦆampionship, particularly in the sport, I know the pressures that come with that, and so it’s nothing less than I expected from him.

“He’s still a youngജster, and he’s going to be growing a huge amount over the next decade, which I think everyone will be excited to see. I just try and if I can, lead by example⭕.

“Because as I said, I know that I have a lot of youngsters particularly that are♈ racing, that ar𓃲e looking at what I do and what I say. And that’s important for me.”
