Button lashes out at ‘idiot’ Kobayashi

McLaren driver Jenson Button hit out at ‘idiot’ Kamui Kobayashi after the latter sent the Briton and Nico Rosberg crashing out at the start of the Korean Grand Prix on Sunday.

Button’s fine start from lowly 11th was wrecked when Kobayashi came flying down the inside, smashing into the McLaren and destroying its suspension.

‘I’ve just been hit by Kobayashi. What an idiot!’ Button, exclaimed over the team radio.

He also hit out at the Japanese after the race, saying: ‘It’s extremely disappointing. It’s a great circuit for overtaking, so it’s surprising to see people behaving like that on the first lap.’
