“Should Have Done the Same in Oscars”: Will Smith’s Slapgate Comes Back to Haunt Him as Fans Troll Him for “Close” Comments During F1 Appearance

The Fresh Prince Will Smith has not had the best of times post his impulsive outburst that led to physical violence against Chris Rock. Will Smith has not been a stranger to the F1 world. His most popular involvement was in a PR activity involving him and Lewis Hamilton. In the 2018 finale of the Abu Dhabi GP, the Mercedes clan posted a hilarious video of Smith secretly wanting to replace Hamilton in the cockpit.

The F1 paddock regular publicly apologized for slapping Rock during the Oscars ceremony and has been relatively away from the limelight and social media. However, the King Richard star has been trying to get back to his normal ways by bringing back life to his social media. Recently, he was spotted in a very unusual place on the Jeddah grid. And fans were quick to call him out, recalling the ‘out of line’ slap gate incident.

In a reel posted on his official Instagram account, the Oscar winner is seen standing near the wall at the grid. He looks into the camera and shouts, “We might be a little too close.” Then trying to squeeze his feet behind the line he looks back at the camera and asks, “am I behind the line” to which the cameraman filming the situation replies, “barely” and the clip ends with Smith mouthing “wow” after the F1 cars roar past him.

Will Smith called out for “always crossing the line” during his recent F1 appearance

The man was recently spotted making jokes about working on his own rear in a hypothetical situation of appearing alongside another Academy award winner, Brad Pitt. However, the video he posted from the Saudi Arabian GP has left onlookers taking a dig at him. Have a look at a few comments from the said Instagram post:

“You should have done the same in the Oscars too 💀 not crossing the line”
