Hamilton was chasing Verstappen for the lead of the race at Interlagos. The Dutch driver defended his lead, which saw them go off track. At the time, the FIA didn’t need to investigate the incident, but with new evidence being brought forward after the race, Mercedes have requested a right to review.

Speaking of this incident, Verstappen said, as quoted by Motorsport-Total, “Then of course her true face comes to light.Of course, it’s not my team, so I don’t have to deal with it, but then you show your true face and show who you really are.” (Translated via Google Translate)
