Internet reacts to Verstappen pushing Leclerc off track: "That's a joke"
Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen started from the front row. The Dutchman looked to overtake Leclerc going into turn one and forced the Ferrari car off the track. So much so that Verstappen himself went extremely wide as well. The stewards investigated and handed Verstappen a five-second penalty. This is how the internet saw the incident.

He didn't even try to turn in he had basically sealed the outer edge of the corner, if he gets to keep the spot I'm turning this off

It's easy to take the lead when you simply don't brake for the corner...

Ah that’s a joke. So from now on if you’re quicker you can just push someone off, and only get a 5 second penalty and pull away. What is this sport #VegasGP
