Verstappen avoids penalty for alleged Bottas block in Mexico
Max Verstappen has avoided a penalty for allegedly blocking Valtteri Bottas during the final stage of Formula 1 qualifying for the Mexican Grand Prix on Saturday, with the stewards taking no further action. Verstappen opted to back off in order to warm his tyres up for a second flying lap early in Q3 at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, only for Bottas - still only a flying lap - to come across the Dutchman entering the stadium section. While Verstappen moved his car to the left-hand side of the circuit to try and move off the racing line, Bottas felt he was impeded as he came across the Red Bull on-track, causing him to lock up at the next corner due to turbulent air.
