VIDEO: Verstappen and Bottas nearly crash! Penalty coming?
Dozy moment for the Mercedes man.
Max Verstappen was left fuming after he almost rear-ended the slow-moving Mercedes of Valtteri Bottas during the first practice session for the Spanish Grand Prix. Max's flying lap was compromised and it remains to be seen if the race stewards will take a closer look at the incident.
