A friendly space hopper race between McLaren racers descended into chaos when Daniel Ricciardo walloped Lando Norris in the face with his bouncy ball.
Those packed into the stand alongside the home straight at Silverstone on Thursday were left in stitches as they watched the two McLaren drivers face off in an unorthodox race. Ricciardo and Norris were each given a large space hopper to compete with in an event set up by broadcaster Sky Sports.
Commentator David Croft was presenting when the space hoppers were produced and handed to the McLaren racers, who looked puzzled but accepted the challenge. The race almost ended in disaster before it had even begun, as Norris slipped and almost fell backwards.
