Watching the podium celebrations on Sky Sports F1 (23/11 5:51 am), Croft said: “Well, he’s getting rather used to winning, is Max Verstappen, but he shows no signs of stopping or slowing down or not wanting many, many more wins to come.
“All smiles for Max Verstappen, who is playing the role of the underdog in the closing stages of the season, which is not a role that Max has played very much in his career.
Button added: “No, and he’s got everyone cheering for him to chase down the McLaren drivers, which isn’t something he’s ever had before.”
Croft continued: ”He’s single-handedly as well helping Red Bull to that third place in the championship as well.
