Max Verstappen was left to rue what might have been after the Belgian Grand Prix was red flagged and then took place in mostly dry conditions.

Max Verstappen’s Fiery Reaction to Red Flag in Belgian Grand Prix Is Drawing Attention originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Belgian Grand Prix got off to a dramatic start Sunday, but not in the way fans were hoping. Right after the formation lap, the race was red-flagged due to what officials called unsafe conditions on the track.

Max Verstappen said the rain-delayed Belgian Grand Prix should have started “miles earlier” after it began more than hour behind schedule. Despite a relatively dry scene at the scheduled 3 PM start time, FIA race director Rui Marques opted to red flag the race, leading to a lengthy delay.
