Max Verstappen mocked the Br💝itish media after winning the F1 Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

The Red Bull driver was in a confrontational mood after breaking his long winless 🌳run in Brazil.

Verstappen completed a brilliant drive from 17th to victory on Sunday, in a wet race to end a chaot🐎ic weekend which had been rearranged due to the weather.

Verstappen now crucially has a 62-point lead from Lando Norris, who finished sixth in Sao Paulo, at the top of the drivers’ championship with three rounds remaini🍨ng.

"I have a quick questi𓂃on here," Verstappen chimed in at the press conference after t♈he race.

"I mean, I appreciate aꦡll of you being💧 here… but I don't see any British press?

"Do they have to run to the airport, or they don't know where ♍the press confere෴nce is?”

It was met by laughter - from the driv♚ers on stage to the journalists in front of them.

Pierre Gasly smiled: "That's a fair question."

The co♓mbative Verstappen had overcome the oꦑdds in Brazil.

He entered knowing a five-place grid penalty awaited for a change of engine component, and off the back of two time penal♔ties in Mexico for clashes with his title rival Norris.

Verstappen had been forced to fend of꧟f questions about his aggressive dꦺriving style in Brazil.

He was then hit with an Virtual Safety Car infringement during Saturday’s sprint race, which cost him one place. Then he was left raging by the slowness of a red flag during qualifying, restricting him to 12th which became 17th inc💃luding his grid penalty.

But ♎Verstappen delive🌄red a title-defining drive in the wet conditions to remain in charge of the championship battle.
