Pierre Gasly says online abuse aimed at him and his family is “completely inappropriate” after an incident involving his teammate Franco Colapinto during the Spanish Grand Prix in Madrid. According to reports, the situation includes threats and harassment circulated through social media platforms after the on-track clash.
Both outlets describe that Colapinto had been held up by Gasly during the race, but the focus afterward shifts to the conduct of fans and users online rather than further details of the racing incident itself. Gasly publicly criticises the disturbing nature of the threats, including claims that abuse extends beyond the drivers to personal relationships, and he signals that such behaviour is not acceptable.
The reporting differs mainly in emphasis: one outlet highlights threats directed at Gasly and his family, while the other places additional attention on abuse said to target Gasly’s girlfriend and broader fan harassment. Both accounts agree that Gasly is drawing a clear line against online intimidation in response to the aftermath of the Madrid race incident.
