WATCH: Listen to Dutch commentators' heartbreak as Verstappen crashes in Azerbaijan
Max Verstappen's late crash in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix was one of the defining moments of a thrilling race on the streets of Baku last Sunday.
The Red Bull driver was on course for a great victory – and the chance to extend his championship lead over rival Lewis Hamilton – when a tyre blow-out took him out of the race just five laps from the chequered flag.
It wa a moment of high drama for any neutrals watching, but one of utter heartbreak for Verstappen himself, and his legions of Dutch fans – which was a feeling aptly conveyed by the reaction of the commentary team from Ziggo Sport, who broadcast Formula 1 in the Netherlands.
