#F1 Hungarian GP: Daniel Ricciardo lashes ‘amateur’ team-mate Max Verstappen after crash

Australian Daniel Ricciardo has blasted Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen for “amateur” driving after the Dutch teenager shunted him out of the Hungarian Grand Prix on the opening lap.

Sebastian Vettel won a tense finish in a Ferrari one-two that stretched his championship lead to 14 points after Mercedes rival Lewis Hamilton sportingly surrendered third place to his team-mate.

Ricciardo and Verstappen made good starts from sixth and fifth respectively, both jumping Hamilton on the first turn.

Ricciardo then passed his Dutch team-mate into turn two to move into fourth before Verstappen hit him as they came through the next corner.

The incident did irreparable damage to Ricciardo’s Red Bull, which went off the circuit and was spilling a lot of oil…
