After a race in which Max Verstappen was part of yet another collision, the Dutchman didn't say whose fault the crash was, but he did point out that the team has suffered the most from the crash.
When talking to Dutch news outlet Ziggo Sport, Verstappen deflected the question on whose fault the crash was between him and Daniel Ricciardo.
"We haven't decided yet [who's at fault] but that doesn't matter because this is just terrible for the team," the 20-year-old stated.
"That's the worst part because so many people work on the car.
"Of course, it's a fifth and sixth place, but you have to take those points home."

Max was pressed to talk about what exactly had happened when the two cars collided, and the Dutchman was surprisingly calm and collected when talking about it.
"You obviously want to keep your place, and before the accident everything was fair," he analyzed.
"We touched each other once.
"That can happen when driving on the limit and there's nothing wrong with that.
"Only that last clash, whoever may be at fault, that just can't happen between us as teammates."
