Verstappen had been on the receiving end of boos and the wrong sort of cheers at Silverstone, Hamilton’s home race, last weekend. Red Bull’s championship leader was booed when he qualified on the front row and cheered when he slowed in the race, a puncture and car damage dropping him from the lead to seventh.
“I was going through a bunch of stuff in the crash, but to hear it afterwards you know…I don’t agree with any of that, no matter what,” said Hamilton of the cheers after he hit the tyre barrier at speed.“It’s just mind-blowing that people would do that, knowing how dangerous our sport is. I’m grateful that I wasn’t in hospital and I wasn’t heavily injured,” added the sport’s most successful driver.
Not everyone likes everyone....specially if you’re a professional.....comes with the territory.....
