Somebody forgot to tell Max because everyone gives it to him 😂Max Verstappen unsure whether he would have won without Leclerc's DNFMax Verstappen was questioned if he felt the win was in the bag even before Leclerc's crash. However, the Red Bull driver admitted that it would've been a close battle until the end of the race.“I mean, that’s always difficult to say. But I think what was good today is we were attacking and we could stay very close on a track where it’s really difficult to follow. Because already driving on your own, the tyres are overheating, and to be in the DRS for that long, I think was very promising."“Of course, he pulled away a bit towards the end, but I think that’s just normal when you’re trying to stay close and the tyres are wearing. But it would have been, I think, a really good battle to the end. Unfortunately, we never got to that, but luckily, of course, Charles is okay. But yeah, from there, it was managing to the end.”Max Verstappen now enjoys a 63-point lead in the championship and is in a commanding position.
