Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Martin Brundle has roasted Cara Delevingne after she refused to talk to him at gridwalk shows during British Grand Prix Formula 1. (Read More Here).
Model Cara Delevingne said she was “told to say no” and did to speaking with Martin Brundle ahead of the British GP after drawing some criticism for her actions.
Sadly by this stage, former F1 racer turned pundit Martin Brundle has become rather accustomed to being blanked by a small handful of celebrities when attempting to talk to them for his iconic ‘grid walk’ segment.
And, as Brundle made his way through the packed Silverstone grid to attempt to grab a word with Delevingne, she joined the likes of Megan Thee Stallion in giving him the cold shoulder.
Brundle had the last laugh at the time, delivering the sarcastic line of “Ok…I’m sure it would have been extremely interesting”, but after the race Delevingne took to social media to give her take on what happened.
‘Take a leaf out of Sam Ryder’s book and be a bit more humble when you’re on the Grid,’ a second added. A third tweeted: ‘In a world full of Cara Delevingnes be a Sam Ryder, what an awesome bloke #F1 #BritishGP #Silverstone.’
But others defended the model, with one writing: ‘I walked past @Caradelevingne a few times & she seemed to be chatting & getting involved (also has a history with motorsport eg FE etc..) Worth taking a step back sometimes and realising there could be other factors at play rather than just cancelling everyone #F1 #BritishGP.’
Footage shows Martin Brundle approaching the supermodel with a Sky Sports F1 microphone before he was quickly told by an aide that ‘she doesn’t want to talk’.
Unperturbed, the racer-turned-broadcaster was clearly keen to get his chat anyway, saying: ‘That’s the deal now, everybody talks on the grid,’ to which Cara responded: ‘I can’t hear anything, sorry,’ as the Red Arrows roared overhead.
The supermodel, who was seen wearing a chic black trouser suit with a matching bra and a black baseball cap, gave a curt ‘no’, shaking her head, before repeating ‘no’ again.
Clearly frustrated, Martin told her: ‘The deal is everybody has to speak on the grid…’
Unimpressed, he replied with more than a hint of sarcasm, telling viewers: ‘Okay, well, I’m sure it would have been extremely interesting,’ at which point the model offered a thumb’s up to the camera.
Later in the day, Cara took to Twitter to offer a further response to the interaction.
