McLaren: Max Verstappen's driving wasn't "addressed properly" against Lewis Hamilton in 2021

"They weren’t addressed properly in the past when there were fights with Lewis that needed to be punished in a harsher way."

It was reminiscent of Verstappen’s various battles with Hamilton in 2021, particularly in Brazil and Saudi Arabia.

Speaking to Sky Sports F1 after the race, Stella felt that Verstappen’s driving is a result of not being punished adequately in the past. “They weren’t addressed properly in the past when there were fights with Lewis that needed to be punished in a harsher way. Like this, you learn how to race in a certain way.”Stella believes the punishment Verstappen recieved in Austria - a 10-second time penalty - wasn't “proportionate to the outcome”.

“Almost compromise your reputation? Why would you do that? “The stewards found Max was fully to blame in this episode. It’s not about racing in a driver’s way. It’s about driving within the regulations.
