George Russell accuses Max Verstappen of bullying

The Mini Verstappen-Piquet update comes at an exciting time for the racer as he has already become the F1 global champion for a fourth consecutive year before the season end after a rip-roaring beginning to the 2024 calendar.

On a different front, Mercedes racer George Russell has accused Verstappen of bullying and threatening behaviour in relation to a dispute at the recently concluded Qatar Grand Prix. Verstappen said she had “lost all respect” for Russell.
