After months of perfect races Max Verstappennow sure to win his second world championship title in Formula 1, in Singapore GP put one on the track poor performance finishing the race only in seventh position and having to postpone the commitment to the mathematical certainty of the world title.
Despite your test at the Marina Bay circuit was disastrous (completed with two sensational errors both at the beginning and at the end), the result does not affect your chances of winning the World Cup at all as, with five races to go in the season, he is 104 points clear of his closest rival, rival Charles Leclerc (second in the Singapore race with his Ferrari behind winner Sergio Perez, even after the penalty inflicted on the Mexican for the FIA Stewards for the offense committed under the Safety Car regime).
In fact, the Red Bull driver will only need to score at least 8 points at Leclerc and 6 at Perez in the next Japanese GP to become world champion (and if he doesn’t get it in Suzuka, he will still have four more matches points available). The Singapore race therefore did not compromise his season in any way. and can be safely stored assingle default in a championship conducted so far perfectly. In view of this, the Dutchman’s post-race reaction that a few minutes later the checkered flag was immortalized while lying on the floor, angry and desperate for the poor performance offered on the track (or so it seemed).
The photo in which a despondent Max Verstappen was encouraged by two Red Bull men inevitably circulated on the web with many fans who didn’t hide their own amazement at how the ruler of the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship reacted after the only bad weekend for months (before Singapore he was back from five straight wins, all with impeccable performances).
just read fan comments on twitter to understand how surprised they were to see a driver who has practically won the world title be destroyed and shot down after his first negative performance of the year: “He dominated a whole year and after the first bad race he crashes like this“,”He leads the championship by over 100 points in a space machine and reacts like this“,”he is human too“,”The samples react like this“are just some of the captions that accompany the photo shared by many people.
The most recurrent message between posts and comments, however, is the classic “this can’t be true“Which perfectly conveys the idea of amazement to see Verstappen in this condition in the first and only wrong race of the season, but also the closest to reality. Verstappen’s reaction is not true: one In fact, the video captures all the action of the Red Bull driver who just got out of the car. and the seconds leading up to that shot that immediately went viral.
As can be seen in the video above in fact the 25-year-old at the end of the Singapore GP looks neither angry nor psychologically depressed about the race resultbut yes physically tested by physical exertion to which he was subjected to the very tough 60 laps of the very grueling Marina Bay street circuit in less than ideal conditions due to the violent storm that broke out just before the race and which also delayed the start time.
