Oh dear, it's not even a god crash, just a slow and silly misjudgement immediately after another slow and silly misjudgement.

On another note, why do they use a 2012 Red Bull rather than an old Toro Rosso?
Do Ferrari ask for the engines back or something?

It's not the 1st time a 16 year old has borrowed a car taken it to a car park and binned it

That was ludicrous.

A lot of the drivers were saying that he is too young and does not have the experience to go into F1 yet, so he has just given them ammunition.

Sounds better than 2014 cars whatever it was :-)

And that's what you get for showing off. Hmmff.

You'd think after mis-judging the turning circle once, he'd quit doing that, but no, once he got going, he just wasn't Verstappen...

a real Verstappen, his father crashed quite a lot :lol
inexperienced, could not find anti stall button quick enough and steer/clutch/gearshift at the same time.
