Valtteri in a recent Instagram story called out United Airlines. The driver wrote, “My last 32hrs been like, Cancelled flight. Rerouted flight. Missed last connection flight to Europe. Stay overnight. Try to get my bags with no luck. 3 bags lost. Change airport. Buy new ticket. Try again. Never again @united.”
Bottas who mention “Missed last connection flight to Europe” must be traveling back for the Spanish race weekend. However, by the looks of it, a hectic flight delay might have caused problems for the driver.

32-year-old Bottas has been in incredible form this season. Finishing his last race with a P7, the driver has managed tremendous results with the Alfa Romeo team. Despite leaving Mercedes F1 after last season, the Finn did not lose hope. In fact, in the last 5 races, Bottas has managed to give Lewis Hamilton and George Russell a run for their money.
Valtteri has now even managed to out-qualify a Silver Arrows car in an Alfa Romeo. Even Imola was a close call, as he kept closing the gap to rival Russell, who did everything to avoid being overtaken by Bottas in the final stages of the race.
