POLL: Was Vettel or Leclerc at fault for Brazil crash?
Their slight touch caused big damage.
The end of the Brazilian Grand Prix was pitched into absolute bedlam as Charles Leclerc and Sebastian Vettel crashed out of the Brazilian Grand Prix after colliding with each other.
Valtteri Bottas' engine failure prompted a late safety car period which brought the pack together, and Leclerc had fresher tyres with his team-mate in a battle for third place.
As they raced down the back straight, a slight touch of tyres saw Leclerc's front suspension utterly wilt, and Vettel pick up a puncture.
Both had to retire, but who was to blame?
