Pierre Gasly already knew on arrival in the media pen that Max Verstappen had taken the world title in Abu Dhabi, but the way it happened, he never saw before. The former teammate of the Dutchman sees in this video the images for the first time and he can hardly believe his eyes.

On the final lap of the final Grand Prix of the championship, Verstappen manages to outsmart his great rival. You don't have to take much trouble to read the surprise on Gasly's face: "Even in a movie it couldn't be like this."
