The Verstappen & Norris Clash at the 2024 Austrian Grand Prix... 

Excellent video and explanation. Def. worth a subscribe.

Great video

After the two made their final scheduled pit stops on lap 52, my eyes were GLUED to these two for the last 20 laps until they clashed at turn 3 on lap 64. I was disappointed that Lando Norris (one of my favourite drivers), was out of contention, but at the same time, delighted that Verstappen had no chance of winning either, and that George Russell was going to win the race!

When you do your 'This is what would happen in (insert season here) without (insert team/driver here)' video at the end of the year, and if it has no Red Bull in it, your probably gonna say 'Lando & Verstappen collided here in real life, that does not happen here, and so it's Lando Norris winning the Austrian Grand Prix with George Russell 2nd and Oscar Piastri 3rd.'

Finally some sensible opinion. I agree that lando was desperate and his attacks were trash. Attacks were the same when I play the f1 game. And point to be noted is that turn 3 is not exactly just a right hander. The circuit goes to slightly left and then turns 80 degrees. See any battles everybody goes a bit left before turning right otherwise you will lock up and go wide like Lando did. It was a racing incident and both were at fault. Lando fans have to understand that. He has to learn planning a move. Look at Charles vs max they both battle so great cause they plan and play moves not just dive bombs.

This is some of the best F1 in ages and people are complaining, talking about cracking down on this type of aggresive driving. Why do you want more boring racing? In that case we might aswell make a rule that cars arent allowed within 1 meter of eachother, just let them race and let shit happen. The penalties are there to compensate if something wasnt quite right and Norris divebombs were also borderline illegal and defintaly looked like an amateur

10 Years ago 2014-2016: Hamilton vs. Rosberg, The Silver War = Friendship ended Now 2024-????: Verstappen vs. Norris, The Orange War = Friendship not so near its end but it’s near the end

Verstappen was certainly jinking over to squeeze Norris wide and off the track on a few occasions and I suspect there may now be a crackdown on this kind of overly aggressive driving. The whole thing put me in mind of Schumacher versus Hill/Villeneuve, desperately trying either to win or eliminate both from the race and we don't want to see any retirn to that nonsense. What I feel is highly ineffective is the current system of time penalties. A ten second time penalty at this stage of the race had zero effect on Verstappen. I would like to see the FIA move towards an actual finishing position demotion, moving the driver a few places down the finishing table rather than a simple time penalty which may turn out to be no penalty at all. I also think the "stakes" of the offence need to be taken into consideration with championship-deciding deliberate accidents penalised far more heavily than infringements further down the order. As it stands, Verstappen was really permitted to drive Norris off the track then recover to fifth place while Norris parked in the garage rather than winning the race.

It was Ego against Ego. Norris still could have points if he drove slower to the pitlane.

It was the Verstappen we had seen before. Changing lane under braking and going to the absolute limit and even over it! I am on Lando's side and i really really do not like how Max does his infights it is not how a Gentleman does things! Okay okay i see i see what you mean and yes both could have done better but Max really that was to much "again"! Remember he was really a crash kid in his first few years!

Please ALL CALM DOWN and study Peter Windsor take on it ... He vindicated Max Verstappen perfectly! ... No Joke!!
