Max Verstappen was involved in a three-car collision on the first lap of the Singapore Grand Prix, and it resulted in a DNF for all three drivers involved.
Scuderia Ferrari attempted to place the blame on Verstappen for the accident, and they tweeted out that the 19-year-old Verstappen "took out" Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen.
What we tweeted was a factual description of events. No need to speculate on this

Verstappen's father, Jos, who was a Formula One racer for eight years, defended his son on Twitter. Max was sandwiched in between the other two drivers, and it's obvious he wasn't to blame for the wreck.

Jos even drew arrows to show where his son wasn't at fault, and he said "I have nothing more to say."
The people at Ferrari obviously disagreed, but it's clear the Verstappen's are on the right side of this debate.
