Max was forced to do this to stand against the Mercs and the reds ..
Don't forget this was his home race and most of the eyes from the 85,000 spectators were looking for him only .
So the pressure was really big , when we think he's only 18 we need to have even more repect for Max .
Lewis Hamilton is 31
Kimi Räikkönen is 36
Max Verstappen is only 18 and drove already in F1 when he was only 17 , but won already a F1 race and several podiums .
Who did this before in the F1 history ?

Well, more pressure to win or stand on the podium because its your home race DOES NOT justify to force things and take unnecessary risks IMO.
Let me remind you, they are not driving spec miatas.
Blocking Kimi when he was going at full speed could have been deadly...
He will not earn more respect if he continues to drive like this, I guarantee it.
