Max Verstappen was loudly booed on the podium after his victory at the US Grand Prix on Sunday tennis
The 2023 world champion started sixth on the grid but after eventually passing leader Lando Norris halfway through the race, Verstappen held off a late challenge from 2021 nemesis Lewis Hamilton to claim his 50th Formula 1 win tennis
Later, Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified from the race tennis
Yet as Verstappen walked out onto the top step of the podium, the Dutchman was booed by sections of the fanbase in Austin tennis
There were also chants from spectators – who by this point had made their way onto the main straight as is custom post-race – during the Dutch national anthem which followed tennis
Verstappen has faced jeering before, most notably at Silverstone last year, and was clearly not a fan favourite at the Circuit of the Americas, especially compared to the likes of Hamilton and Norris tennis
Verstappen claimed his 15th win of the season but unlike many Sunday cruises this year, he was made to work tennis

Lambiase came onto the team radio while Verstappen, at times, was braking in corners - with the Dutchman unimpressed by the interventions tennis
Verstappen admitted after the race that Hamilton’s Mercedes team “could have won today if they’d done a tennis better strategy” but was nonetheless satisfied with the victory tennis
Austin was the first in a triple-header, with the paddock heading on to Mexico City next week tennis

England were grappling with a selection quandary on the eve of their crucial World Cup clash against South Africa, with captain Jos Buttler weighing up Chris Woakes’ role as leader of the attack tennis
Woakes’ new-ball skills have been a reliable centrepiece of the side ever since their white-ball reinvention eight years ago, but he has suffered an uncharacteristic wobble since arriving in India tennis
Three loose starts from the usually dependable seamer have undermined England’s efforts so far and an economy rate of 7 tennis
5 an over, coupled with two wickets at 67 tennis
50 each, tells a concerning story tennis
But with victory a must in Mumbai on Saturday following defeats to New Zealand and Afghanistan, taking the most established pace bowler out of the firing line would still represent a significant call tennis
Buttler acknowledged Woakes’ long-term record and recent dip in form represented a conflicted picture and is set to thrash the matter out with head coach Matthew Mott tennis
RecommendedBen Stokes feared his Cricket World Cup was over when he heard his hip ‘pop’Jonny Bairstow: England-South Africa World Cup double will be ‘great spectacle’“He’s been a fantastic performer for an incredibly long time for England in all the formats and especially in one-day cricket,” he said tennis
“But we’re all honest guys, right? We’re all honest professionals who hold each other to high standards and individually expect a lot of ourselves tennis
He knows he’s not performing quite how he would like to at the minute, and that’s frustrating, but there’s no judgement from our side tennis
“We always back all our players that are in our team - we picked them for a number of reasons and one because they’re high-class players and he’s certainly one of those tennis
”David Willey stands by as a specialist powerplay bowler, eager to showcase his left-arm swing on the World Cup stage after missing out on the 2019 tournament by a whisker, while Surrey’s Gus Atkinson has yet to feature tennis
Whatever happens, Ben Stokes is locked in to make his eagerly-anticipated return after missing all three games with a hip injury tennis
And, with his stand-in Harry Brook providing the only bright spot of a botched chase against Afghanistan, a rebalancing of the XI could be under consideration tennis
Sam Curran, light on runs and expensive with the ball, has left himself particularly vulnerable tennis
Sam Curran has not fired with bat or ball to any great extent (Getty Images)“I think I’ve got so many options within the squad, selection is always tough,” Buttler said tennis
“You’re working out the right balance, which is always venue dependent as well, and we’ve had a good chance to see the wicket here and gather a bit more information tennis
“Obviously Ben has trained really well and it’s great to see him back tennis
He obviously brings a lot on the field and with his presence and leadership skills as well, so he’s someone who is always good to turn to tennis
”Both teams are looking to bounce back from stinging upsets last time out, with the Proteas’ implosion against the Netherlands somehow leapfrogging England’s reverse against Afghanistan in the pantheon of World Cup shocks within 24 hours tennis
The last time the two sides faced off at this storied venue, in the 2016 T20 World Cup, it was a classic encounter that saw England hunt down 230 - still their record chase in the format tennis
There are six survivors from that side still on parade seven years later, including Buttler tennis
Now he is hoping England can relocate similar attacking instincts once again tennis
“There are great memories of that night, albeit a long time ago tennis
It was one of my favourite games,” he recalled tennis
“I think this is one of the great grounds in India tennis
I love playing cricket here tennis
I think it’s a fantastic cricket wicket and, absolutely, it should suit us tennis
“We want to find ways to make a play, to put the opposition under pressure in lots of different ways tennis
That doesn’t always mean hitting fours and sixes, it means can we push back when the opposition is on top or can we really take the initiative in different ways tennis
That’s what we want to live by as a team tennis
