According to the BBC, Verstappen was totally unimpressed with the whole pizzazz of the "show"; sort of "I'm only here to race, not glad hand all and sundry". Meanwhile Hamilton put on his best PR hat and only had good things to say, while Ricciardo said it was "cool".
Alonso and Stroll jnr didn't attend the special official "Meet the drivers" which was staged for the benefit of the high-rollers and Stroll senior had to deputise for them.
