FIVE OF MAX VERSTAPPEN'S PREVIOUS BUST-UPS:
1 Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen, Belgian Grand Prix, 2016
The pair clashed twice during the race, on the opening and second laps, which prompted an angry outburst from Raikkonen.
In the second incident, Raikkonen was forced to lift to avoid going into the back of Verstappen, 18, after he moved across the circuit, and the Finn said on the radio: "Clearly his only interest is pushing me off the circuit completely."
2 Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, Bahrain Grand Prix, 2018
The Dutch driver and Lewis Hamilton came together at the Bahrain Grand Prix, with the Red Bull driver forced to retire after receiving a puncture from a collision which caused Hamilton to question 21-year-old Verstappen's maturity.
Hamilton apologised later for calling Verstappen a rude word.
3 Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo, Hungarian Grand Prix, 2018
On the first lap of the race in Hungary, Verstappen crashed into team-mate Ricciardo, sending the Australian into a spin which forced him out of the race. In a Sky Sports interview after the race, Ricciardo called his fellow Red Bull driver "amateur" and added he made a "very poor mistake".
Verstappen later apologised for the incident and was given a 10-second penalty by the race stewards.
4 Verstappen and Valterri Bottas, Italian Grand Prix, 2018
Verstappen was given a five-second penalty after his collision with Bottas' Mercedes which forced Bottas to miss a turn and lose time. The subsequent penalty led to an angry outburst from the Red Bull driver who called it "bulls***" over the radio.
In addition to the five-second penalty, two points were also added to Verstappen's licence after the stewards had reviewed the video evidence from the collision.
5 Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo, Mexico Grand Prix, 2018
On what should have been a good weekend for the Red Bull team after Riccardo took pole position in qualifying and Verstappen second, the latter was unhappy with his team-mate's celebrations.
According to the Dutchman's father Jos Verstappen, his son got three hours sleep because he was angry and only wanted to win the race.
Ricciardo has decided to leave Red Bull for Renault next season and has insisted he was "done" with the team.
