During the Bahrain Grand Prix, there was an incident involving Toro Rosso’s Daniil Kvyat and Alfa Romeo’s Antonio Giovinazzi. Kvyat has always had the reputation of being an overly aggressive driver. In fact, Sebastian Vettel even dubbed him a ‘Torpedo’ and the name has stuck with him since.

But in Bahrain, Daniil Kvyat was the one getting ‘Torpedoed’ this time around. The one spearing into him was Alfa Romeo’s Antonio Giovinazzi. Though both lived to tell the tale, there was obviously going to be a bit of bad blood.

After the race was over the Italian confronted the Russian driver. The two argued about who’s fault it was though replays clearly showed that Giovinazzi initiated the contact.

Not much could be heard about their conversation as it happened during an interview with Max Verstappen and the two were in the background.
