And that is where he finished in a race that lacked action after the restart following a red flag in the first lap.

A huge crash saw Verstappen’s team-mate Sergio Perez hit the wall after being clipped by Haas driver Kevin Magnussen.

The incident saw Perez’s car cut in half, taking out another Haas man Niko Hulkenberg.

Race officials ordered a restart with Charles Leclerc leading from Oscar Piastri, with Verstappen still sixth.

Fans were also left bored by the race with one reacting to Verstappen’s comment, tweeting: “Saying what we always think about F1.”
