Esteban Gutierrez has hit out at Lewis Hamilton for allegedly sticking up his middle finger towards him during yesterday’s Hungarian Grand Prix.

The Mexican was ahead of Hamilton and Nico Rosberg on track when Hamilton moved by and gave the Sauber driver a hand signal.

Reports suggest Hamilton was unhappy with Gutierrez’s speed with Rosberg closing  quickly.

Gutierrez took to Twitter to voice his anger, and later urged Hamilton to show more respect.

"Not a very respectful move from him I have to say,” he said.

"I have spoken to him in the past. I think he is respectful, he is the world champion, but he shouldn't do these kinds of things.

"He should respect all of the competitors. You never know, maybe in the future I will be fighting for a championship with him, so he has to respect that."
