Max is a hot head but do you really think that he would say that he would deliberately crash somebody out and put them on their head¿? Verstappen never went to this level even though he was sent to the hospital by lewis (for standard checks only). I somehow don't see him making that specific statement - both parts, the one about letting Russell through and about shoving him into the wall doesn't sound like something that max would.
He did say it.
And wdym? Max has definitely deliberately crashed before. Saudi Arabia 2021 is an obvious one.
Shoving someone into the wall sounds exactly like something Max would do, he's well known for being overly-aggressive and shoving people off track.
We have had no third party come out and verify what happened between them. How can you make such a concrete statement is my question.
Odd that he hasn't put anyone (other than himself) in the wall in Monaco, Baku, Las Vegas, Singapore, Sochi, Montreal or any other track with walls close by. Max often goes over the line when fighting with a car on traditional circuits and is often not punished appropriately for it but he much better behaved on street tracks because he knows the consequences.
