VIDEO: Leclerc, Vettel crash out of Brazil GP!

A touch of tyres between Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc led to both drivers being forced to retire from the Brazilian Grand Prix.

As both drivers battled for position Leclerc tried to pass Vettel and when both cars came to the straight, the slightest of contacts between them led to two serious punctures which forced firstly Leclerc, then Vettel, out of the race.

Vettel was fuming with the incident, screaming down team radio asking of Leclerc 'what was he doing!', but it appeared that the German had nudged just slightly into his team-mate's path.

But it was unfortunate for both drivers who were trying to race, as the touch between tyres led to more damage than either could ever have imagined.

Here's the incident - who do you think is at fault?
