Former F1 driver criticized Red Bull for using "dirty tricks" to win all because he was terminated by Red Bull

Former F1 driver criticized Red Bull for using "dirty tricks" to win all because he was terminated by Red Bull

"I wouldn't have been a world champion without him (Perez)."

Verstappen expressed his gratitude to team-mate Perez after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Master Pey managed to block Hamilton on the track, allowing Verstappen to recover 10 seconds and keep his teammates open for a chance to win the title.

While countless experts and fans marveled at Perez's successful defense, former F1 driver Pol Dé did not have any sympathy for Red Bull and Perez's tactics.

After the game, an F1 journalist named Buxton tweeted: "Red Bull doesn't look as fast as Mercedes, but gosh, Perez's defence is unbelievable, it's so exciting. ”

Former F1 drivers call Red Bull "unsportmanlike"

Poldé replied: "I thought you loved the sport. But you're talking about, and I can't understand why Perez is happy with his performance and why people applaud him. ”

To stop Hamilton, he deliberately slowed down and used all sorts of dirty tricks. The whole team was unsported. ”

"They completely sacrificed Perez's game just to keep him in that position. He deliberately lost a few seconds per lap to block Hamilton. He didn't want to lead the way, just to waste Hamilton's time. ”

That's the team

Red Bull did anticipate this, objectively speaking, Perez's car had no chance of winning, and compared to Hamilton's car, it was obviously inferior, and in the case that the entire team only had to support Verstappen to win the championship, Perez naturally had to do his best.

After a bitter battle with Hamilton, Perez's car also developed instability problems, and the team also recalled Perez to the maintenance area in the final stage to prevent accidents.

While Red Bull voluntarily gave up a potential third-place and constructors' championship, it was this bold attempt that gave Verstappen a chance.

Buxton's accusations against Polday were completely incomprehensible. "It's a fair race, that's the team. Alonso had done everything in hungary to stop Hamilton in order to give Ocon more space. Maybe such a strategy is a bit radical, but all teams will stick to it. ”

The reason Poldai targeted Red Bull this way is because Poldai, who played for Little Red Bull Racing in 2009, was terminated in the middle of the season.
