Furious Verstappen Blasts FIA for Slow Red Flag Reaction

Verstappen Fumes at FIA Over Red Flag Delay for Stroll Incident

03/11/2024

Max Verstappen criticises FIA’s delayed red flag decision, believing it hindered the Q2 session’s potential to restart in Brazil.

Max Verstappen was furious with the FIA following his Q2 elimination.

The Red Bull driver, who qualified 12th but will start 17th due to a penalty, was unimpressed by the 40-second delay between Lance Stroll’s crash and the red flag being shown.

“The car hits the wall; a red flag should be immediate. I don’t understand why it takes 30 to 40 seconds for a red flag to come out. It’s just nonsense.”

“Honestly, it baffles me. It’s so stupid to even talk about. It’s ridiculous.”

“Everyone in front of us is improving while we’re left out. It was obvious they took an absurd amount of time to bring out the red flag. Otherwise, we’d have had time to restart the session. It’s truly disgraceful.”
