I think its more about being behind Lewis. If there is one driver who Max won't tolerate being wheel to wheel is Lewis. He is happy to fight Leclerc.
He got shafted on the strategy by Red Bull, they should have done a better job at calling the pitstop and avoid getting undercut..
*Edited to remove my bullshit
Come on, mate. That's some BS. Lewis is one the greats of F1 and Max has a lot of respect for him. Max being the competitor he is, will never accept being outperformed by him, he defeated Lewis to take his championship and now he has to defend it from Lewis.
Max very well knows, the only driver(s) (with car to their liking) that can challenge him (for a full season) are Hamilton and Alonso.
Almost true except that Verstappen doesn’t have respect for anyone, and he shows clearly every time he doesn’t have a missile under his car but he has to fight.
