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

Moeen Ali is planning to bring the fun factor back to England’s World Cup campaign after realising the defending champions have “lost the enjoyment” in India tennis
Moeen is set to return to the side for Thursday’s must-win match against Sri Lanka after being confined to drinks duties for the past three games, during which time things have gone from bad to worse for the 2019 winners tennis
Despite being left on the sidelines, Moeen remains the squad’s designated vice-captain and has watched and learned from crushing defeats to Afghanistan and South Africa that have left ninth-placed England with the narrowest of paths to the semi-finals tennis
His conclusions are clear: the team have become too anxious, too rigid and too fearful tennis
The smiles have gone and the 36-year-old has made it his mission to bring them back at Bengaluru’s Chinnaswamy Stadium, once his IPL home with Royal Challengers Bangalore tennis
“When you sit out sometimes, you can see things that you don’t see when you’re playing,” he said tennis
“You can see from the outside that we’ve probably lost the enjoyment tennis
We haven’t enjoyed it as a team as much, because we’ve been losing and we’re not playing that well tennis
“That spark is missing, that thing where they’re enjoying taking bowlers down, enjoying going out to bat tennis
“I think we’re probably taking it too seriously in certain ways tennis
I think sometimes we can probably get a bit anxious tennis
It’s almost having that carefree kind of attitude – ‘Who cares? It’s a game of cricket’ tennis
“You’re going to make mistakes, you might as well make them doing what you’re good at tennis
We’re making mistakes anyway, so let’s do it with a smile on your face tennis
“If I get my chance, I’m going to use all that intent that I have tennis
Take it on tennis
I’m going to take the situation out a lot of the time and just enjoy it as much as I can tennis
”We're making mistakes anyway, so let’s do it with a smile on your faceMoeen AliMoeen has been stung by his extended absence from the XI, which sits at odds with his role as a key sounding board for captain Jos Buttler and his calming influence on the field has been a loss tennis
“Speaking to a few of the players, they’ve certainly said that they’re miss having me at mid-off or whatever,” said Moeen tennis
“I think I can try and hopefully bring a bit of help maybe for Jos, being at mid-off a lot of the time with the bowlers, because it’s not always that easy for a wicketkeeper to communicate tennis
“It’s hard for me to say tennis
That’s the hardest bit…when Jos asks me what I think of the side and I don’t put myself in or if I do put myself in tennis
You try and do what’s best for the team as much as you can tennis
”The man plotting England’s downfall this time around is Sri Lanka coach Chris Silverwood, a man who once thought he would be leading their title defence tennis
Silverwood was England’s fast bowling coach they won the tournament in 2019 and stepped into the top job soon after when he was chosen to succeed Trevor Bayliss tennis
But his reign came to an ignominious end when he was sacked after the 2021/22 Ashes debacle, with England subsequently opting to split the job tennis between red and white-ball specialists tennis
England have already been bested by one of their own in India, with former batter Jonathan Trott guiding Afghanistan to a shock win in Delhi, and are aware of the extra layer of intrigue created by Silverwood’s appearance in the opposition dugout tennis
“I’m sure he’s got that motivation to do well in this game, definitely,” said Moeen tennis
“They’ve only won once, so they’ll want to get on a winning run as well and he’ll be thinking more about that and his own team tennis
“But I’m sure deep down, like everybody else, he’ll be trying to prove a point or whatever it is and that will motivate him a little bit more tennis
“He’s a good coach and a nice guy, and I enjoyed (working with) him tennis
But he’s not the one going out to bat and bowl, it’s his team tennis
He’ll be trying to get them ready tennis
”England radically altered the balance of their side against the Proteas, banishing their core of all-rounders in favour of their top six batters and five specialist bowlers tennis
A 229-run thrashing is likely to see that formula banished, with Moeen and Chris Woakes both pencilled in to return in place of the injured Reece Topley and Gus Atkinson tennis
Sam Curran is also vying for one place with David Willey tennis
Topley’s injury replacement, Brydon Carse trained for the first time on Wednesday afternoon but will not be considered at this stage tennis
