Russell claims Verstappen threatened to "drive me into the wall"

Mercedes driver George Russell claimed that Red Bull's Max Verstappen threatened to "ram his head into the wall" after a meeting with the track marshals at the Qatar Grand Prix. The comments came after Verstappen blamed Russell for the one-place penalty he received following qualifying, accusing the Briton of obstructing him during practice. Russell responded to the accusations, calling the four-time world champion a hypocrite and stating that "people have been bullied by Max for years."
