The grid is all set for tomorrow’s Saudi Arabian GP, and the grid has taken a major hit, as the favorite for the weekend, Max Verstappen, got eliminated from Q2! Taking no wall hits or deleted times, the Dutchman has been held back by his own car’s failure after his RB19 suffered from a driveshaft issue. The drop in power attracted attention from everywhere, as Verstappen’s expressions spewed anger. And rubbing salt into his wounds was the Tweet from his arch-nemesis, Mercedes.

Lewis Hamilton’s team was one of the quickest to register their reaction to the problems with Red Bull and had the fans rolling. The banter between the two teams and, by extension, their drivers seems to be on a renewal path. Plus, we are bound to witness action between the two Silver Arrows and Max during the main race on Sunday. 

However, they were also quickly served with a reality check by the fans, who called out the lack of performance over the weeks. Mercedes fans have decided to proceed with caution while trolling the Red Bulls after their power in Q1. Nevertheless, the shots have been fired, and the Red Bull fans have shot back immediately. And tomorrow, it will certainly be Max Verstappen’s turn to fire his rounds when he starts from the eighth row of the grid.

Max Verstappen’s fans remind Mercedes of the horrors

The attack on Max Verstappen reminded fans of the digs from the peak of the rivalry between Lewis and Max in 2021. But this time, Mercedes has been called out for its cheap tactic, as the fans of the Milton-Keynes-based squad were quick to conjure up and launch scathing attacks.
