Viewers were shocked to see and hear the incident as Charles Leclerc overtook Lando Norris before cutting back inside and hitting out verbally
Leclerc seemed to think Brit Norris – who went on to take pole for Sunday’s race – was holding him back unfairly on the Barcelona track.
Eventually the Monégasque driver overtook the 24-year-old’s McLaren as he entered turns 7/8.
But Leclerc cut back sharply to the inside racing line – appearing to clip Norris’ wing mirror quite clearly.
The 26-year-old was then heard saying: “F*****. I don’t understand why they did it.”
