VES about VIL, "he killed someone"

[ClarkBT11]

oh dear, an entire thread to criticise yet in another way mr Verstappen. is this F1tabliod now?

Who doesn't get criticised on the internet?

Fixed that for you

Thank you. I was trying to refrain myself from typing something negative towards Manoah2u and his love for Verstappen. Love is blind.

I used to like Verstappen. Not any more the guy is talented but his actions and the FIA'S are below the belt.

This all reminds me of Hamilton making a remark about Schumacher, he said: i believe everything happens for a reason.

The whole "world" hated Hamilton for making hos remarks.

But it is in wich context it is being said.
The media is to blame for this. i agree it is not a very nice thing to say.
But maybe take it with a pinch of salt ....

Never a fan of Jos Verstappen, and these things do remind me a bit of him.
Bad temper ....

Oh, the arrogance...

The difference is, someone died in Villeneuve's crash because the car ahead had a technical problem and that's what caused the crash. Whereas with Verstappen, he makes conscious decisions risking himself and others. Turns out he's a text book ------. The apple don't fall far from the tree, then.

Schumachers car was fine.

Ralf Schumacher said: "I was on the inside of the track going my way and being careful not to make any change of line. I braked, and suddenly I felt a huge bang in the back and saw Jacques flying over me. It's only thanks to the safety level of our cars that nothing bad happened to either of us."

I remember that crash quite well. Villeneuve at the time was heavily critized because it was not the first time he ran in the back of someone.

Still I think this comment of VES is totally uncalled for.

I personally pay no attention to anything Villeneuve says. I have no idea why he seems to crop up so often in the press.

He is also a commentator for some channel I believe.

I think we can generally summarize Verstappen needs some media counselling
