Addressing Verstappen’s criticism, Montoya called for consequences to be meted out to the Dutch driver, including adding penalty points to his racing licence, so he moves closer to a race ban.
While Montoya aired his frustration with Verstappen’s criticism of the current regulations, Antonelli has no intention of resting on his laurels in the title fight despite securing a third consecutive win in Miami. The Italian driver moved 20 points clear of his team-mate after his win in Florida, with George Russell enduring another difficult weekend after also missing out on the podium in Suzuka.
The standings now tilt in favour of the Italian, who holds almost a full race margin, while remaining fully aware that the title fight is still a long way from over. Sharing his thoughts on the championship, the Italian highlighted the strong momentum he is currently enjoying, while stressing that the season remains long and unpredictable.
