Max Verstappen reacts to a collision with Racing Bulls driver Liam Lawson during Free Practice 2 ahead of the Mexico City Grand Prix, saying it was “not very smart behaviour.” The clash occurred while both drivers were on flying laps in the stadium sector, with the contact ending with both colliding and debris cleared during a brief red-flag period.
Across outlets, the incident is framed around Verstappen’s criticism and Lawson’s situation as he fights for his Formula 1 future. Motorsport.com and The Race also situate the moment within a wider, disrupted FP2 session. The Race notes a messy practice that includes Charles Leclerc topping the times, Leclerc twice going off track, and Lewis Hamilton’s car breaking down with an engine problem.
