Don’t miss… <\/strong> Martin Brundle hits out at F1 drivers kicking off after Qatar Grand Prix[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAnd let\u2019s hope that happens because for a young kid, rookie of the year, to come in and win that Sprint Race on Saturday and finish second yesterday was simply staggering. And I have to say I have the height of respect for this kid and I think he\u2019s got a massive future. Let\u2019s see what happens.\u201d<\/p>\n Russell and Hamilton have both expressed disappointment at not pushing for victories over the past few weeks, and neither of the pair being named by Jordan could raise eyebrows within the Mercedes camp as a result.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

He continued: \u201cSometimes you look at Messi and you think \u2018My God, how did he score that goal?\u2019 Forget Ronaldo for a moment, or Maradona.<\/p>\n \u201cThis guy (Verstappen) is so special, he\u2019s so dedicated, he\u2019s so committed at everything. It\u2019s almost boring because he\u2019s in the simulator. Right now today he\u2019s going through exactly the corners, the turns, how he can go quicker in Austin the next race, and so forth. He\u2019s that dedicated to the job of dominating, and that\u2019s what he is doing.\u201d<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/73\/590x\/secondary\/5005279.jpg?r=1696975076733\")
