JAKARTA - Max Verstappen's victory in the Netherlands has been highlighted by several parties. There are allegations of conspiracy behind the victory.
There is a theory that says Red Bull ordered AlphaTauri to lure the safety car out to help Max Verstappen.
The allegation emerged after Yuki Tsunoda's withdrawal from the Dutch Grand Prix was considered strange. Before Tsunoda ended the race faster, Verstappen was indeed in a position behind Lewis Hamilton.
Tsunoda initially stopped on the side of the track, telling his team via radio that there was something strange about his land jet after the pitstop.
The Japanese driver then relaxed his seat belt and prepared to get out of the car. However, the crew in the garage asked him to start and drive the car back into the pit.
After returning to the pits, AlphaTauri crew re-paced their seat belts, replaced their tires and sent Tsunoda back. However, the former Formula 2 driver was still not happy with the car and was ordered to get off the track.
Tsunoda's decision triggered the release of the safety car, which gave Verstappen enough time to make a second pit stop and maintain the lead.
With Red Bull and AlphaTauri's close ties, suspicions soon emerged. However, both teams insisted there was no collusion.
Unfortunately, many F1 fans have been shouting about this conspiracy theory. Red Bull's chief strategy, Hannah Schmitz, was targeted.
While other fans are heating up the situation, this is not the case with Pregnancy supporters. The official Hamilton fan group, the LH team, actually sent a message of support to Schmitz.
"We 100 percent understand that everyone's emotions are high at the moment," a message Hamilton later retweeted in person.
"No one thought the race would take place like that when we were so close to victory. But it's important for us to continue to spread love and empathy to hard-working teams in the paddock, either from our team or from others, especially women."
"The hate comment language directed at the head of the Red Bull strategy, Hannah Schmitz is intolerable and must not be forgiven. This sport is cruel, and you have to be really ready for anything, and that's what he did today," the tweet continued.
The group added, "There are many positive things that can be taken from Lewis's race today, and that is what we are focusing on. Thank you for your unwavering support for LH! We won and lost together."
