The rivalry between George Russell and Max Verstappen has reached a boiling point. Verstappen has accused Russell of being “two-faced” and claims he tries to frame other drivers in front of race stewards. Meanwhile, Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff didn’t hold back, calling Verstappen a “small, yapping dog” for commenting on the behavior of Mercedes drivers.
Toto’s remark signals the end of cordial relations between the two camps. “The love story is over,” fans joked. Russell, on the other hand, has been clear in his condemnation of Verstappen’s actions, saying, “Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but he crossed the line.”
Adding to the tension, Russell brought up the controversial 2021 championship, where Lewis Hamilton lost the title under contentious circumstances. Wolff also shared an anecdote about his young son hearing curse words, claiming it came from a driver.
The situation has turned into an all-out war of words, with both sides refusing to back down. Stay tuned—this clash of titans is far from over! 🚗🔥
