Unlike the press, both drivers refused to blame each other though.

Kimi told the BBC: “I don’t think it was anybody’s fault…It was just a normal racing incident. “Unfortunately we touched, but I don’t know what I can do, because I was on the outside and cannot see everything in this situation.”

The race stewards also agreed, as their investigation ruled that the crash as a racing incident and therefore neither driver will face any penalty from the FIA.
