Oscar Piastri finally claimed his maiden Formula 1 victory in last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, although the Australian did not grab all the headlines.
The headlines were stolen by Lando Norris and Max Verstappen for their separate interactions over the radio, which added incredible tension to the race.
Norris at first looked set to ignore team orders in allowing Piastri to overtake, whilst Verstappen criticised Red Bull several times over its strategy.
Behind Piastri, Norris finished second to secure McLaren's first one-two since the 2021 Italian Grand Prix, whilst Lewis Hamilton completed the podium to secure a 200th rostrum.
However, what did the rest of the world make of the race? Find out as RacingNews365 takes you through the headlines of some of the biggest global publications.
🇬🇧 The Times - 'Max Verstappen tells critics to ‘f*** off’ after Hamilton collision'
Starting in the United Kingdom, The Times has focused on Verstappen's furious post-race comments.
Verstappen showed a side of himself which has not been seen in several years, with the Dutchman having spoken poorly to race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase on multiple occasions.
The reigning world champion remained hot-headed after finishing fifth, with him having said that those who criticise his driving can "fuck off".
🇮🇹 La Gazzetta dello Sport - 'Red Bull-Verstappen storm: "Sh...t strategy". "Max, don't be a child"'
Over in Italy, La Gazzetta dello Sport has also focused on Verstappen, but rather some of his radio messages with Lambiase.
Verstappen was furious from the first corner after believing he was forced off the circuit and complained about what the stewards deemed as fair racing.
He went on to criticise Red Bull's "shitty strategy", with Red Bull team principal Christian Horner having been left unhappy in the manner of which Verstappen spoke about the outfit.

🇫🇷 L'Equipe - 'Max Verstappen, 5th in the Hungarian GP: “Always out of time”'
In France, L'Equipe, like most of the world, has also focused on a very annoyed Verstappen who believed he was "always out of time".
The French newspaper has focused on the 26-year-old's post-race comments to French broadcaster Canal+, where he again criticises the strategy Red Bull put him on.
Verstappen felt like the Milton Keynes-based outfit failed to react to what was going on and allowed himself to be undercut in both pitstops.
🇳🇱 De Telegraaf - 'Angry Max Verstappen extremely critical of Red Bull: 'Received stupid comments again''
In Verstappen's homeland, Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf also focused on the three-time world champion.
The Dutchman had not cooled-off when speaking to Viaplay and criticised Red Bull for delivering him "stupid messages", rather than trying to calm him down.
Verstappen was not pleased that Red Bull defended its choices, rather than accept a mistake was made.

🇩🇪 BILD - 'Max Verstappen angrily attacks his critics'
In Germany, BILD has focused also on Verstappen's post-race comments and his short message for those that question some of his driving.
It is the same "fuck off" line which was ran by The Times in the UK, with it coming as somewhat of a shock for Verstappen to say what he did.
The Dutchman also received criticism for colliding with Lewis Hamilton, although the incident at the first corner was judged as a racing incident by the stewards.
🇦🇺 Herald Sun - 'McLaren slammed as teammate drama sours Piastri’s maiden F1 win'
And finally, in Australia, the Herald Sun has focused on Piastri's win being made somewhat sour by Norris.
Piastri overtook Norris for the lead on the first lap and led comfortably, until Norris performed an undercut on the Australian driver due to McLaren wanting to cover off Hamilton.
When Piastri completed his second pit-stop and was in second, McLaren informed him that Norris would return the lead to him. However, Norris did not do this for several laps and questioned the team's decision. Ultimately, Norris did hand Piastri the win.
