Damon Hill has ripped into Red Bull and Max Verstappen insisting they can’t take criticism and that the Dutchman would ‘cry like a baby’ if the roles were reversed in terms of driving standards.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 1996 Formula One world champion previously accused Verstappen of acting like Wacky Races villain Dick Dastardly after last year’s Mexico Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

Verstappen was handed a combined 20-second penalty for his aggressive driving in incidents involving Lando Norris.<\/p>\n

The Dutchman responded to Hill saying that he didn’t listen to people who were ‘annoying’ and ‘biased’.<\/p>\n

Both Max and his father Jos made suggestions of ‘bias’ in the British media against him – including from ex-drivers.<\/p>\n

Having joined Sky Sports as a pundit in 2012, Hill departed the broadcaster at the end of the 2024 season.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the Telegraph<\/a>, Hill said that the Red Bull team can’t take criticism and that Max Verstappen would ‘cry like a baby’ if the roles were reversed on his driving.<\/p>\n
