Football predictions Martin Brundle: Calling the stewards stupid idiots is not at all fair and not smart on Verstappen`s part

Brundle analyzed the moment with the accident of Verstappen and Piastri. Commentator and former Formula 1 driver Martin Brundle is convinced that Red Bull driver Max Verstappen`s abuse of the judges was unfounded.
The four-time world champion received a ten-second penalty for colliding with McLaren rival Oscar Piastri at the start of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Verstappen claimed that he was completely level [with Piastri], but this was not the case. Perhaps Piastri could have left more space, but I doubt he saw the late dive.
As the famous Ayrton Senna quote goes, if you don`t dive into the gap, you`re no longer a racer, but Max didn`t need to take that risk at all in a 50/50 situation for either of them.
After receiving a ten-second penalty, the angry Max in the car called the stewards stupid idiots, which was not fair or smart on his part, but the calmer Max apologized to Oscar and McLaren after the race, Martin wrote.
