How the internet reacted to Verstappen's win and Mercedes' double podium
- GPblog.com
Max Verstappen won the French Grand Prix, dealing a big blow to rival Charles Leclerc in the title race. The Ferrari driver put a DNF behind his name. Without the pressure of the Monegasque, Verstappen won the race. Carlos Sainz made up for lost time and Mercedes maximised its chances with a double podium. The teams and drivers posted this on social media and this is how the race at Circuit Paul Ricard on Sunday afternoon was reacted to on the internet.
