Max Verstappen needs to use his head and show caution rather than bravery if he wants to beat Lewis Hamilton to this year’s World title.

That’s according to former F1 driver and five-time grand prix winner John Watson.

This weekend’s Belgian Grand Prix sees the race for the World title resume with Hamilton eight points up on Verstappen.

While the Dutchman has more race wins, five is to four, he’s also had more bad luck with a tyre failure in Baku, and crashes at the Silverstone circuit and the Hungaroring.

When all is said and done this season, many believe the Silverstone crash will be viewed as the catalyst – the moment that set a friendly rivalry into a fierce no-holds-barred fight.
