Bortoleto apologises after crashing into Sainz at Malaysian GP

Original: F1 - Bortoleto se desculpa por 'acabar' com corrida de Sainz e dele próprio na Malásia: Brasileiro fazia início de prova

Brazilian F1 driver Gabriel Bortoleto has apologised after a collision with Carlos Sainz ended both their races at Sepang in Malaysia. Bortoleto had made a promising start to the grand prix before hitting the Spanish Williams driver, damaging his own car and receiving a 10-second penalty, which proved irrelevant as he could not continue.

Why now: The rookie's error took out two drivers, prompting apology and reaction from fans of both drivers.
