Max Verstappen has said that he is not fazed by the furore surrounding his recent on-track battle with Kimi Raikkonen in Hungary.

Although the FIA did not penalise him, F1 veteran Raikkonen complained vociferously about the Dutch teenager having moved in the braking zone.

"Kimi doesn't say much but when he does, he usually has a point," world champion Lewis Hamilton said at Hockenheim.

Most of the rest of the grid agrees too.

"I think all of the drivers are against what Max did," Marca quotes Verstappen's former Toro Rosso teammate Carlos Sainz as saying.

"Because we say that doesn't mean we've never done it or been tempted but I think it shouldn't be allowed because it's very dangerous," he added.

18-year-old Verstappen, however, says that he has not talked the incident over with the Ferrari driver.

"No, it was not necessary," he told Stuttgarter Nachrichten.

When told about the widespread criticism by his racing colleagues, Verstappen added: "The stewards had all the information and did nothing. So everything was okay.

"Also, I have to say that we're racing in Formula 1, not doing some sort of Sunday drive where you say 'Oh you're faster so I'll let you pass'."

When asked if a gesture to Raikkonen was necessary, Verstappen joked to the Finnish broadcaster MTV: "Maybe I'll buy him an ice cream. We can have an ice cream together.

"I think he likes them, and so do I."

Verstappen and Raikkonen sit sixth and fourth in the standings ahead of tomorrow's German Grand Prix.
