Former bad boy Juan Pablo Montoya believes that what Lando Norris is doing in relation to Max Verstappen is a joke. Victim position, coercion to conform, any manifestation that does not belong to a real challenger for the world title…
Montoya believes Norris is complicating things for himself with the way he relates to Verstappen. It would be hard to argue with that!
"Lando is a very talented, fast and clean driver, but what he does is a joke. You can't fight for the world title against qualities like Max Verstappen by telling him how much you respect him, that he is the best driver in the world and that you apologize for something you didn't do... Don't get me wrong, you can think like that in private, but you shouldn't say that in public, because it suggests weakness! I really like Lando, but it wouldn't hurt if he kept his mouth shut and gave up the victim role. Nobody has ever won world titles doing that!" - was the severe and absolutely justified criticism from the former F1 driver.
