In the dying stages of the Brazilian Grand Prix, there was incredible drama as the Ferrari duo of Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc took each other out. Initially, Leclerc overtook Vettel on the main straight.

However, Vettel tried to fight back and misjudged the amount of space he gave his teammate. The end result was the two colliding and both retiring from the race. This incident took place  with barely a handful of laps to go.

This left absolute chaos behind them with the grid mixed up and the safety car had to be scrambled out. Charles came away with a broken suspension while Vettel got a puncture and heavy damage. Both drivers could not continue and could only look on forlornly as their rivals capitalised handsomely.
