Nico Hulkenberg-Kevin Magnussen spat continues after race

After going wheel-to-wheel in a battle for position at the Hungarian Grand Prix, Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg went head-to-head in a spiky war of words following the race

The pair were battling for 11th place towards the end of the race when Hulkenberg attempted a move around the outside of Turn 2. Magnussen forced the Renault driver off the road at the exit of the corner and, despite holding onto position, was later issued a five-second penalty for the incident.

After the race, Hulkenberg confronted Magnussen about the incident in the TV media pen, leading to the following exchange.
