This Saudi Arabian Grand Prix kept all its promises. We were treated to several red flags, eventful starts and above all a memorable battle between Max Verstappen et Lewis Hamilton. A clash between the two leaders even took place with an imbroglio around the fact that the Dutchman should let his rival pass or not, during the 38th lap. A very tense race which promises us a final round with suspense.

“It was quite hectic, comments Max Verstappen. A lot of things happened that I don't agree with. I tried everything on the track, but I'm not sure the tires held up until the end."

Regarding the episode on the 38th lap, Max Verstappen admitted not having understood the collision with Lewis Hamilton. “On the straight I wanted to let Hamilton pass, but he didn't seem to want to and then we touched. I don’t really understand what happened.” See you in Abu Dhabi in a week to experience the outcome of this season of Formula 1 which, one thing is certain, will be remembered.

MAX: "It was eventful, a lot of things happened that I don't fully agree with but it is what it is.

"I slowed down, I wanted to let him by, I was on the right but he didn't want to overtake and we touched. I don't really understand what happened there"#SaudiArabianGP (I.e. #F1 pic.twitter.com/bvQyx7CxNW
