It was Max Verstappen v Valtteri Bottas late in FP2, and one guess who came out on top of that.
Surging ahead of Valtteri Bottas in a late-practice battle in FP2 in Mexico, Max Verstappen laughed when his race engineer told him the Alfa Romeo driver “even used DRS” in the tussle.
Heading down to Turn 1 with Bottas slightly ahead, Verstappen had the better pace and took the inside line to pass the Alfa Romeo driver.The Finn wasn’t having it and went wheel-to-wheel with Verstappen into Turn 2. Verstappen was happy with his day’s work at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez but expects it will be a close battle for pole position on Saturday.
“I think tomorrow is going to be incredibly competitive over one lap, and the race pace again, that’s a different story.”
