Niki Lauda has called on the FIA to severely punish Lewis Hamilton for his recent antics during the Monaco and Canadian races in which he has made contact on several occasions.
In Monaco, he collided with both Felipe Massa and Pastor Maldonado. He received drive-through penalties for both incidents.
The 26-year-old retired from the Canadian GP after he made contact with his team-mate, but prior to that, he touched Mark Webber and span the Australian.
Lauda says his driving is ‘completely mad’ and has called for the governing body to teach him a lesson before he kills someone.
“What Hamilton did there goes beyond all boundaries,” Lauda told RTL during his race commentary. “He is completely mad.
“If the FIA does not punish him, I do not understand the world any more. At some point there has to be an end to all the jokes. You cannot drive like this – as it will result in someone getting killed.”
These comments follow a similar theme from Emerson Fittipaldi who also questioned his driving style.
