F1 fans in hysterics as Martin Brundle snubs Nadine Dorries on pitwalk after rugby blunder

Formula One fans have been left in tears of laughter after Martin Brundle snubbed Nadine Dorries during his famous pit-walk before the British Grand Prix.

The popular Sky Sports F1 commentator and former driver has become an iconic part of race weekends for his walks down the grid, where he interviews drivers, team bosses and celebrities in attendance. Brundle spoke to the likes of Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold, rapper Stormzy and Tom Cruise as he frantically weaved in and around the grid.

And fans spotted the moment where he directly walked past culture secretary Nadine Dorries, completely blanking the Conservative MP. Viewers were left in hysterics and took to Twitter to voice their support for Brundle’s savage snub.

One fan wrote: “Did Martin Brundle just blank Nadine Dorries?!? Absolute king.”

Another tweeted: “MARTIN BRUNDLE JUST BLANKED NADINE DORRIES ON THE GRID HAHAHAHAHAHA.”

A third added: “The best manoeuvre of the day was Martin Brundle swerving to avoid Nadine Dorries.”

It follows gaffe-prone Dorries’ cringe-worthy blunder earlier in the week where she tried to show her admiration for Rugby League ahead of this year’s World Cup. 

The Tory bright-spark turned attention to the world of rugby at an event promoting the World Cup, which is set to take place in England later this year but dropped a clanger as she attempted to show off her knowledge of the game.

“I’ve always quite liked the idea of rugby league,” the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport said. “My long-standing memory is that 2003 drop-goal. We were drinking Bloody Marys at the time. Wow, what a moment that was.”

Unfortunately for the Mid Bedfordshire MP, England hero Wilkinson scored the winning drop goal in the final of the Rugby Union World Cup final, not the Rugby League World Cup final.
