With the chances of another collision unlikely, it wouldn’t be surprising. Max Verstappen‘s aggressive defense only forces Hamilton to attack harder. And in a battle where neither driver is willing to back down, the intensity is sure to rise.

Former F1 driver, Martin Brundle, explained, “they’ve got to keep it sensible, of course–but we know how aggressive Max is, and Lewis knows that, and Lewis knows you’ve got to fight fire with fire.”
As the two drivers face the lights at Sochi, five points separate the two. Max will look to broaden the gap to Lewis while the Brit would fight for his position after his 100th win. Brundle rightly stated, “I think there was a bit of history there from Imola, from Barcelona, from Silverstone–and Lewis knows he can’t yield to Max. Max is aggressive. One way or another, they’re going to keep meeting in the middle.”
