 November 1, 2022 Brundle, one of F1's longest serving and most respected pundits, has now hit back at Verstappen and Red Bull, saying that boycotting Sky was not the right way to go about things. 'For the avoidance of doubt my friend and colleague for the past 26 years Ted Kravitz has my full support,' the former driver posted on Twitter. 'Face to face dialogue is the only way to sort out issues and disputes in the relentless crucible of the F1 paddock. We all have opinions and different jobs to do, that's life.' Cl){kind=link}
NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Martin Brundle has defended his fellow Sky Sports F1 pundit Ted Kravitz following Max Verstappen and Red Bull’s boycott of the broadcaster.
The entire Red Bull team chose not to appear on Sky for the duration of last weekend’s Mexico City Grand Prix after comments Kravitz made at the previous race in the USA upset the Dutch driver.
The famed pit-lane reporter said that Sir Lewis Hamilton had been ‘robbed’ of the 2021 title, which was won instead by Verstappen, and the now two-time champion claims that this is not the first time Kravitz has made this suggestion.
‘This year it’s been a constant… yeah, kind of like daily being disrespectful, especially one particular person. And it’s enough, I don’t accept it,’ Verstappen said of the boycott.
