Verstappen's race ruined over Piastri action: The Australian is heavily penalised!

The Safety Car was coming into the pits, and whilst the field was approaching Stowe corner, Piastri slammed on the brakes which caused Verstappen to overtake him momentarily, which the Dutch driver criticised on the onboard radio: "Whoa mate, ****! He just suddenly slows down!"

Coming out of Stowe, Verstappen then spun his RB21 as the field sped away. Fortunately the race did not end there for the Dutchman, who managed to come to grips with his car, mitigating his position loss to 8.

The race officials then slapped Piastri with a 10s penalty making Lando Norris, his teammate and championship rival the de facto leader of the chaotic British Grand Prix.
