Sky F1 presenter Brundle asked permission to talk to Delevingne during his trademark pre-race grid walk at the British Grand Prix but she decl🤡inඣed.

Brundle attempted to insist that all celebrities should say a few words on cameras before admitting defeat and muttering “I🅠’m sure it would have been extremely interesting…”

She later said via social media: “I was🅷 told to say no so I did. Thank you for seeing bothও sides.”

And added the person alongside her “wasn’t an agent, it ꦐwas an F1 repres🐻entative”.

Delevingne then retweeted a post which said: “Grid walk passꩲes include a▨greeing to be filmed, not interviewed. 

“Consent is a thing? No is no. 

“Cara has every right to deny to be interviewed.

“Maybe you think Cara was rude, but Martin was just as rude, if n⛦ot more so.

“National treasure or not, that doesn't give him the right to demand꧋ interviews from anyone.

“She was told by an F1 representative to say no.

“People refuse to be interviewedꦇ by Brundle all the time🐠, no big deal.”

Brundle’s pre-race grid walks where he speꦇaks to celebrities are a much-loved part of the F1 broadcast.

He was notoriously shoved away by Megan Thee Stallion’s security two years ago forcing F1 to♈ change their rules, stating celebrities cannot bring bodyguards ont♏o the grid.
