Team representative Bradley Lord, who was part of the conversation, told BBC Sport Lambiase had apologised for the remarks “once I showed him the video [of the incident] he hadn’t seen”.<\/p>\n
Mercedes said the comments against Antonelli marked a “1,100% increase in the abuse we sadly usually see on a Sunday of a race weekend”.<\/p>\n
Anontelli’s channel is moderated, so he won’t have seen the messages. <\/p>\n
Wolff said after the race that the comments were “brainless”.<\/p>\n
“This is total, utter nonsense. That blows my mind even to hear that. We are fighting for P2 in the [constructors’] championship, which is important for us. Kimi is fighting for a potential P3 [race finish].<\/p>\n
“How brainless can you be to even say something like this? It annoys me because I’m annoyed with the race itself, how it went.<\/p>\n
“I’m annoyed with the mistake at the end. I’m annoyed with other mistakes, and then hearing such nonsense blows my mind.<\/p>\n
“I spoke to GP [Lambiase]. I saw him and obviously he was emotional in that moment because they needed a P3, I guess, to help win the championship, now they need more.<\/p>\n
“I said to him: ‘He just went off.’ He had a bit of a moment in the previous corner and then had less entry speed into that left-hander, put the gas down and at that moment, that can happen, then lost the position. So with GP, everything is clear. We cleared the air.<\/p>\n
“He said he didn’t see the situation. <\/p>\n
“I said to GP that there’s quite a social media storm. He said, ‘sorry if I caused that, I didn’t see the incident.'”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Team representative Bradley Lord, who was part of the conversation, told BBC Sport Lambiase had apologised for the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":318405,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":{"0":"post-318404","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/318404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=318404"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/318404\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/318405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=318404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=318404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=318404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
