Grand Prix of Spain: Pressing votes to “Rüpel Verstappen”

Max Verstappen has suffered a heavy setback in the World Cup fight – not through no fault of your own. His action against George Russell in the Mercedes shortly before the end ensures a lot of conversation. He himself must have contact with Formula 1 leader and Spain winner Oscar Piatri. The international press writes:

“As”: “Red Bull misses the goal and Verstappen fails. (…) The Dutchman, who does not always make the right decisions in the zeal of the battle, did the rest with an ugly defense against Russell and a touch with the Mercedes, which brought him a ten-second penalty and exchanged a fifth place on the route for a tenth.”

“El País”: “Piatri wins without batting the Grand Prix of Spain with the eyelash, while Verstappen pouts in Montmeló. The Australian gets his fifth win of the season on the circuit and in the Dutchman comes out the dirty version he seemed to have left behind.”

“Mundo Deportivo”: “Many are afraid when the car from Max (Verstappen) appears behind them. Just like in the golden times of (Michael) Schumacher. But (Oscar) Piatri, who saw the blue spot of the RB21 in his rearview mirror, did not even shrug.”

“Sport”: “Cruel exit for Max Verstappen. (…) Max, who went out in his garage, got into a chaos, fought with Leclerc and Russell and received a ten-second penalty that threw him back to tenth.”

“Ad”: “Anger Max Verstappen gets punishment for bloody GP Spain: frustration spreads at the Dutch. Barcelona should be the race of truth for Max Verstappen, and this truth was tough.”

“De Telegraaf”: “For Max Verstappen, the race in Barcelona ended with a large fiasco. He fell back to fifth place, deliberately drove to George Russell (Mercedes) and was then occupied with a ten-second time penalty.”

“Daily Mail”: “Max Verstappen was occupied with a ten-second time penalty after colliding with George Russell in the dramatic last rounds of Spain-and so that the tensions between two of the toughest rivals of Formula 1 had rekindled.”

“Guardian”: “Oscar Piatri won the Grand Prix of Spain with a dominant journey at the top of the field on the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya and secured victory in front of his McLaren teammate Lando Norris. Loss of points took place. “

“Mirror”: “Verstappen was already in a bad mood after his strategy had been ruined by a late safety car. (….) While most of them switched to the soft tires in front, Verstappen had only one sentence of the harder, slower mixture. It became better when his racing engineer advised him to give up the place on the Mercedes. “

“Kleine Zeitung”: “Piatri wins Grand Prix from Barcelona, ​​Verstappen out of the edge and band.”

“Kronen Zeitung”: “McLaren celebrates double victory, Verstappen burned.”

“Salzburger Nachrichten”: “Max Verstappen ensures scandal.”

“Look”: “Verstappen pissed off. What a tire show with a thousand dramas-and the race over 66 rounds started practically after 54 laps.”

“La Gazzetta Dello Sport”: “Scientific Piatri, Löwe Leclerc, Rüpel Verstappen.”

“Le Parisien”: “No surprises in Spain. For the fifth time this season it is Oscar Piatri and his McLaren, who are the first to cross the finish line on Sunday.”

“Le Figaro”: “Max Verstappen in the fight against McLaren. Since the beginning of the season, the four-time world champion from the Netherlands has been the only one who can fight the McLaren regularly (…). While Oscar Piatri in Spain made his fifth win of the season in front of Norris, the papaya cars had to prevail against Stobappens Aggressive Three Stop Strategy, which almost prevailed in front of a completely crazy race would have paid out. “
