Females can have a very little crest aswell, as i found with my Triturus carnifex. A picture of the cloaca may better help sexing the animal.
 
Looks more like a female to me. The males' crests are generally a few mm tall even outside of breeding, they will have an obvious white stripe on the tail year round as well.
 
i raise six of danube crested newt..
none of them appear white stripe on tail and crest...
so exhausted..
 
A male of that size should have gotten a crest by now. Animals get sexually mature within a year most of the time and this animal looks it's passed that stage already. It's either a female (sure looks like one) or a maldeveloped male.
