Formula One race director Charlie Whiting doesn't believe Sergio Perez deliberately drove into Sergey Sirotkin during their battle at the Singapore Grand Prix.
Perez and Sirotkin were embroiled in an intense battle in Singapore with the pair eventually coming to blows on lap 34. As the pair ran side by side through Turns 17 and Turn 18, Perez moved left suddenly into the Williams after appearing to be edge ahead of Sirotkin, resulting in contact and damage for both cars.
The Mexican was awarded a drive-through penalty and three penalty points for his actions -- a judgement which Perez himself thought was fair.
