Max Verstappen is known to do a lot of simulation, for him it is a very important element in his preparation. However, he is also known to often lose his mind in virtual races and do things that he would never allow himself to do on a real race track.
The victim was Jaden Munoz, a racer from the Williams iRacing Academy, who was not intimidated by his more famous opponent and hit him back hard. The story also includes the fact that before the current simulated race at the Road America track, Verstappen had already had a fight in Daytona, but the simulation environment had still absorbed it. Not this time... Four-time world champion Verstappen and Munoz collided in the first corner, with the Dutchman crying so much that he waited at the back of the field for Munoz to crash into him.
"Now look how stupid he is. He'll never change. I knew he would. You're like this because you've been given everything on a platter your whole life, Max. You're a spoiled brat who would be nothing without a father. Nobody would know you, you fucking idiot..." - Munoz got angry, using very strong words.
What do you think, is his reaction justified?
