Max Verstappen Makes Light Of Spa Penalty To Secure Eighth Straight Win
Max Verstappen reeled off his eighth successive win of the season at the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday with his Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez in second. Verstappen also won Saturday's sprint race at Spa-Francorchamps to maintain his relentless charge to a third Formula One world title. "I knew we had a great car, it was just about surviving turn one," said Verstappen, who started in sixth on the grid despite topping qualifying after a penalty for a new gearbox. "It is a new spot P6 (to win from). We made all the right moves," added Verstappen. Perez, who led for much of the early part of the race, said: "It was a good race for the team. We had a great start, to get through Charles (Leclerc), and I was doing my own race -- but Max came through pretty fast on the second stint. There was nothing I could do."
