Max Verstappen's radio message has emerged following his explosive incident with Oscar Piastri at the British Grand Prix.

After a restart in the 21st lap, Piastri and Verstappen were involved in a pivotal moment of Sunday's British Grand Prix at Silverstone.

Piastri slowed down after the safety car peeled away.

Verstappen then went ahead before the McLaren driver decided to make a move.

The Red Bull driver lost control of his car, spinning at the restart - with Piastri being hit with a penalty.

He was handed a 10-second time penalty for his safety car infringement.

Shortly after the incident, Verstappen's radio message emerged and he wasn't happy.

He said: "Woah, mate ****, he suddenly just slows down!"




McLaren's radio messages to their drivers Lando Norris and Piastri also emerged in the wake of the safety car incident.

"Oscar has a 10 second penalty, that means we will not follow him into the pitstop."

McLaren then relayed a message to Piastri: "Oscar, the safety car restart - we've been given a 10-second penalty for the braking on the straight before the restart.

"You have a 17-second gap to Stroll. We want to try and pull as much of a gap as we can."

Damon Hill questioned Piastri's move, claiming it has handed a great advantage to Norris.

"Completely shocking that, you have to wonder what Oscar Piastri did before the restart, he slowed down and Max got himself a bit onside," he said. "That's handed a great advantage to Lando Norris because he now doesn't have to get past Max."

Piastri was leading at the time of the incident.

But his teammate Norris finished strong and secured his maiden victory at Silverstone.

He was greeted to a thunderous reception from his home fans as he crossed the finish line.
