Grosjean disagrees with Verstappen: 'It's the same thing, isn't it?'

Romain Grosjean disagrees with Max Verstappen. The Frenchman has reacted online following the Dutchman's comments about the virtual 24 Hours of Le Mans.

On Boosted Media's Twitter channel, there was extensive coverage of the events during the virtual 24 Hours of Le Mans. Verstappen and Team Redline in particular were dissatisfied after the race, after Verstappen lost his team's lead due to a disconnect.

Criticism of Verstappen

Boosted Media states on Twitter that it is very disappointing that sim racing is being portrayed in such a bad light. Many hours are spent on preparations, which are undone by a problem with the game or server. For Verstappen to speak out so negatively is creating a worse image of sim racing.

Grosjean disagrees and responds: ''What about when you have an engine failure or mechanical in real life, isn't is the same ...?'', the former F1 driver states. Grosjean also entered the race himself, but finished outside the top five.
