An indifferent Max Verstappen has quipped that he is aiming to set for “a new record” for F1 penalties after the Mexican Grand Prix, suggesting the FIA can go for a 30-second punishment “next time.” It comes after the Red Bull driver and reigning World Champion was hit with a rare 20-second penalty in Mexico last weekend.

Max Verstappen was handed two seperate 10-second time penalties during Sunday's Mexican Grand Prix after clashing with title rival Lando Norris and the Red Bull star has now been dealt more pain

The stewards met Friday an hour after the conclusion of FP1 in Mexico City and discussed the Woking-based team’s Right of Review. Norris was dinged for leaving the track and gaining an advantage when he overtook Verstappen late in the race outside of track limits.
