It was the kind of score that might make everyone else wonder which course he was playing. Except that Graeme McDowell saw the whole thing.

Jenson Button says Max Verstappen did the most dangerous thing a driver can do by moving under the braking zone during his battle with Kimi Raikkonen at the Hungarian Grand Prix.Verstappens robust defensive moves angered Raikkonen in Budapest, with the Finn later questioning why the Red Bull driver did not receive any penalties. Button sympathises with Raikkonen and says Verstappen should have known not to drive in that manner.Speaking on Thursday in Hockenheim, Button said: As drivers, we all know that moving in the braking zone is the most dangerous thing you can do because the guy [following] is at 300 km/h and probably hasnt hit the brakes yet. Moving under braking is a no-no and he obviously did move in the braking zone, so I can understand Kimis frustration.When it was put to him that Verstappens move could be considered racing hard, he replied: Moving in the braking zones racing? Moving in the braking zone is not racing, its dangerous.The whole time Ive been in F1 you dont move in the braking zone, because thats where you have big accidents. It wasnt Estebans fault in Melbourne but you look at the accident Fernando [Alonso] had, you happy seeing accidents like that? There you go.Button was quiick to point out his admiration for what Verstappen has achieved in his young career so far and said he may speak to the 18-year-old during the weekend, potentially at Fridays drivers briefing.ddddddddddddHe went on to say: Max is an unbelievable talent in terms of what hes achieved at such a young age and hes doing a great job but theres obviously things we can learn as drivers. I think it just needs to be a bit clearer cut and as Kimi stated he thought it was dangerous.Buttons McLaren teammate Fernando Alonso agreed with the assessment that Verstappen was in the wrong.I think it was illegal, yes, the Spaniard said. As I said, you are allowed to move once and commit to whatever you need to do. You can choose to brake on the clean side, the dirty side, on the inside, on the outside, you are allowed to do whatever you think is best to defend your position. But you are allowed to move once and not two or three times. Thats enough. That is not an opinion, its just the rule. If you take the ball with the hands outside the area it is a penalty and a red card, its nothing more. ' ' '
