Remember how we got Deja Vu of the 2016 Spanish GP at last weekend’s Austrian GP when Checo pushed Verstappen on the grass? Well this F1 legend also got Deja Vu as Cara Delevigne disrespected him just 9 months after Brad Pitt was involved in a similar incident. Fans destroy the model for her actions. But what exactly happened?
It’s not the easiest job being a journalist for F1. Especially right before the start of a race. Everyone is tense and is preparing for the race. Martin Brundle does this famous Grid walk every race where he walks through the grid talking about every driver and interviewing whoever he sees on the grid. However last year at the US Grand Prix, Brad Pitt refused to talk to Brundle who approached him. The SkySports Journalist tried talking to the Hollywood star about the upcoming F1-themed movie but Brad Pitt refused to answer.
Martin Brundle is getting spicy on the grid! Telling Cara Delevingne “I’m sure it would have been interesting” when she snubbed his chat. Ha! I’m so over these rude celebrities and their publicists who disregard the rules. #BritishGP
