Angry Hulkenberg says Grosjean has 'some homework to do'

A frustrated Nico Hulkenberg pointed the finger at Romain Grosjean following his demise from the Spanish Grand Prix following the Haas driver's opening lap blunder.

Grosjean lost control through Turn 3 and then attempted to spin himself around amid the furious pack, taking out himself, Renault's Hulkenberg and Toro Rosso's Pierre Gasly in the process.

Needless to say, the Hulk made no excuses for his clumsy mid-field rival's mishap.

"I just got crashed into. Obviously, we saw that Romain spun and he came back into the track," said the German.

"I couldn’t go anywhere, couldn’t avoid him unfortunately and he took the back end of my car off and that’s the end of my afternoon.

"He doesn’t look great in that particular scenario. But generally he likes spinning a lot during the weekend but lap one is not a good time to do it with all the cars around.

"I think he’s got to look at it and he’s got some homework to do for himself."

Grosjean the perpetrator kept a rather low profile after the race, admitting to his mistake however.

Unfortunately, adding insult to injury, the Haas man's actions resulted in the Spanish GP stewards hitting him with a three-place penalty for the Monaco Grand Prix!

"There’s not much to say. I lost the rear end in turn three and I just spun," confessed.

"If you look at the footage, I had wanted to avoid contact with my teammate. Kevin had a bit of a wobble, I lifted off the throttle, and then the car just went.

"I’m sorry for the others that were involved – there wasn’t much I could do once the car went. Kevin had a good race, which is good for the team. I had wanted a steady race, but that wasn’t today."
