, Ted Kravitz breaks silence on Max Verstappen’s Sky Sports F1 boycott and reveals they’ve had ‘chat’ ahead of Brazil GP

REPORTER Ted Kravitz has broken his silence on Red Bull driver Max Verstappen’s boycott of Sky Sports.

The Dutch driver has ended his boycott of the sports broadcaster, which he had started after Kravitz suggested Lewis Hamilton was “robbed” of last year’s World Championship at the US GP in Austin.

However, after deciding to “bury the hatchet” after clear-the-air talks on Monday, Verstappen says he is happy for them to question him again ahead of the Brazil Grand Prix.

Speaking in Mexico, Verstappen said: “It has been a constant kind of digging and being disrespectful, especially from one particular person. At one point it is enough and I don’t accept it.

“You cannot live in the past and you have to move on. You keep disrespecting me and at one point I will not tolerate it any more and that is why I decided to stop answering.”

Team principal Christian Horner added: “There were some derogatory comments made so we took a break from Sky for this race. Max was upset.

“We were upset and we made the decision to stand together as a team.”

But the talks in Milton Keynes has helped to repair the relationship between the F1 team and Sky Sports.

While Kravitz did not speak of the row during the Mexico Grand Prix, he did instead reveal that a “line” had been drawn under the incident.

During his Notebook show after qualifying in Sao Paulo, he said: “I do want to tell you, just following up what happened with us and me and Max Verstappen in Mexico.

“Listen, we sat down, we had a good chat and, as Max said yesterday, we’ve drawn a line under it.”

Verstappen also confirmed this, adding: “We drew a line under it. We keep on going, and I am looking forward to it.”
