Damon Hill criticized Max Verstappen’s fans who attacked a reporter for expressing her desire to witness a fierce competition in 2024. Hill, former Formula 1 world champion, defended the journalist and condemned the abusive behavior displayed by the fans. The incident occurred after the journalist shared the time sheets from the first day of pre-season testing at X, expressing her hope that the next F1 season would not be dominated by Verstappen. However, this statement angered some fans on the platform, leading to derogatory comments and allegations of bias. Damon Hill, in response, expressed his anger towards these fans and denounced their uncivilized behavior. He emphasized the negative impact that this hatred can have on individuals and society as a whole.

Another person also predicted Verstappen’s victory in the 2024 championship, highlighting Red Bull’s strong position after three days of testing in Bahrain. Verstappen himself expressed his ambition to win his fourth championship title in 2024, with the first race of the season approaching in Bahrain. The question remains whether he will face significant challenges from his competitors while seeking to start the season with a dominant performance.
