But his frustrations grew as he was caught out by Hamilton getting the undercut done by pitting early with Red Bull unable to respond.
Verstappen continued to moan about his car on the radio when he eventually caught back up with Hamilton, but was unable to make an overtake stick.

Lambiase sarcastically said: "Well that's some gentle introduction.
"But the remark went down like a lead balloon as Verstappen exploded in a fit of rage.
He replied: "No mate, don't give me that s***.
"You guys gave me this **** strategy, ok?
"I'm trying to rescue what's left."
