Max Verstappen delivers brutal putdown to Red Bull team-mate at Bahrain Grand Prix

Max Verstappen made a joking remark toward Red Bull teammate Isack Hadjar during a post-qualifying press conference. Verstappen secured his first pole position of the season at the Sepang International Circuit, finishing ahead of Lewis Hamilton in second and Hadjar in third.

When asked to rank his 49th career pole, Verstappen admitted he could not recall every pole lap, prompting Hamilton to agree. Verstappen then teased Hadjar about having zero career poles, reassuring his younger teammate that his time from the front will come.
