Bottas loses it as Ricciardo breaks wind!

As cool and composed as they come, Valtteri Bottas lost it yesterday during the post-race media conference in Singapour.

The culprit? Daniel Ricciardo who inadvertently - we hope - gratified Lewis Hamilton and Bottas with an unmistakable and very audible fart.

This wasn't exactly music to the Finn's ears but he struggled to regain his seriousness. All for the better, as the funny video tells us...

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
