Guenther Steiner says Nico Hulkenberg is a childish bully

HUNGARORING -- Haas boss Guenther Steiner has hit out at Nico Hulkenberg for visiting the stewards to ask that Kevin Magnussen get a more severe penalty for their incident late in the Hungarian Grand Prix.

While battling for 11th place, Magnussen held the racing line through Turn 2 when Hulkenberg was on the outside of the corner, forcing the Renault driver across the grass. The moment earned Magnussen a five-second time penalty and sparked a foul-mouthed exchange in the TV pen after the race when Hulkenberg sarcastically congratulated the Dane for being the most sporting driver on the grid.
