Max Verstappen says he doesn’t “pay any attention to mind games”, but he still took the opportunity to take a dig at Lewis Hamilton.
In a recent talk with the Daily Mail Max Verstappen discussed his relationship with Lewis Hamilton, and he pointed out how different their lifestyles were.
“There is mutual respect,” Verstappen said.
“It’s just that we’ll have different lives, so that limits how much we could meet away from the track anyway.
“I don’t pay any attention to mind games. These things don’t bother me. I focus on the track in the best way possible. Anything beyond that is not relevant to me.
“But I don’t want to make any predictions about the season. It is difficult to call. So many things come into it.”

Although Verstappen pointed out he doesn’t get involved in “mind games”, while talking about his own lifestyle, he made sure to take a dig at Hamilton’s friendship with various ‘celebrities’.
“I wouldn’t hang out with celebs just for my profile. With some well-known people you can strike a good connection and build up friendship, but I would only meet those I think are friends.
“I want to spend time with my family and real friends. I don’t spend too much time checking my twitter or Instagram accounts.
“If I am in Holland, which is not often, I mostly stay in the house again with family family and friends,” the Dutch driver concluded.
