After Lewis Hamilton split opinion at the final race of the season by backing title rival Nico Rosberg into slower cars, Red Bull driver Max Verstappen has revealed he would have done the same if a championship was on the line.In a last gasp effort to swing the title battle back in his favour, Hamilton attempted to back teammate Rosberg into the chasing pack during the closing stages of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. If Rosberg had dropped from second to fourth, Hamilton would have won the championship, but the German was able to resist an attack from Sebastian Vettel and Verstappen behind to secure the necessary points to be crowned champion.I think Lewis was trying to back us up, and I probably would have done the same, Verstappen said after the race. You have to try these things to win a championship.Verstappen recovered from a first corner spin to finish fourth on an alternative one-stop strategy in Abu Dhabi. After dropping to last at the start of the race, the Red Bull driver said he was happy to come away with a strong points finish.I am very pleased with my result and how that race went. After being last after turn 1, having to fight my way back and doing it all on a one-stop was the best we could do and I am happy we pulled it off.I knew I was going to come under attack from the two-stop guys as they obviously had more life left in the tyres, I dont think I could have held Seb off at the end. When you still finish in front of guys who did an extra stop you have to be pleased with the result, especially as we also finished so close to P1.Verstappen was in the running for fourth place in the standings over the weekend, but had to settle for fifth after finishing behind Vettel. Having driven the first four races of the season in a Toro Rosso, Verstappen said he was pleased with his championship position.It is very nice to finish the season fifth in the championship and to have had some really good results along the way. After yesterday I wasnt too happy, so now we finish it on a high. It has been a special season for me this year and I am really excited to get next year underway and hopefully bring more success.
