'Don't push me!' – Furious Pierre Gasly shoves Carlos Sainz Jr after British GP

Carlos Sainz and Pierre Gasly were involved in an heated exchange in the aftermath of the British Grand Prix on Sunday afternoon.

During the race, Gasly made a nice overtake on Sainz only for the Ferrari to get back the position at the following corner.

However, the Alpine driver took exception to the way his rival had passed them, feeling he was squeezed off the track somewhat as the pair approached copse corner at a speed close to 180mph.

On the team radio, the Frenchman shouted: ‘He can’t push me like that! F***, he didn’t give me any space!’

And post-race in the paddock, Gasly confronted Sainz while he was being interviewed by the Spanish media, pushing him on the shoulder as he walked past and warning him: ‘Don’t push me like that.’

A visibly confused Sainz simply grinned at the cameras and said: ‘Huh? Poor thing.’

The pair had recently had a coming together during qualifying in Canada, with Sainz impeding the Alpine star who did not mince his words in the aftermath.

Max Verstappen took victory at the British Grand Prix, with home favourites Lando Norris and Sir Lewis Hamilton completing the podium.
