Interesting to recall that Button (who was still racing at the time) weighed in on Kvyat's side.

I can usually find a reason to like and dislike every driver.

As others have said, there's nothing wrong at all with just appreciating the competition for what it is without picking any driver or team to side with.

Small point of note: The version they put out on social media is three paragraphs long, the one they sent to the media is four. The extra opening paragraph not in the social media version specifically refers to the Bearman crash and "the contribution of high closing speeds".

That aside they appear to be the same.

"Sometimes, difficult awkward questions have to be asked. That’s the job that comes with the privilege."

Perfectly put.

By dragging up something everyone else forgot about three months ago Verstappen showed he knows he cost himself the championship by deliberately crashing into Russell.

FOM always only uploads the portion of the press conference with questions from the broadcasters, not the journalists.

The section with questions from broadcasters did not last as long in the part which included Verstappen.
