Max Verstappen has accused F1's rulemakers of "killing the sport" and called on fans to boycott next year's United States GP after he was stripped of the final spot on the podium. Verstappen, who started 16th, appeared to have completed a remarkable comeback by passing Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen on the final lap. But the Red Bull driver was handed a five-second time penalty after he was adjudged to have gone off the track when he made his move on the Finn in a thrilling conclusion to Sunday's race.

"We had a great race, but with these stupid decisions you really kill the sport," Verstappen said. "I hope the fans didn't like this and hopefully next year they won't come. It's not good for the sport and they have to be clear on the rules that running off the circuit is not allowed anywhere."
