“Again! He can’t just do that, as if I wasn’t there. It’s the same as Austria, seriously. This time… should have crashed, maybe that was the better option!” Vettel said.

The move was similar to the overtake Leclerc pulled on Vettel earlier this season at the Styrian Grand Prix.
On that occasion, the Ferrari team-mates did make contact, resulting in damage to both cars.
