Kevin Magnussen says that his contact with teammate Romain Grosjean in the closing laps of the Spanish Grand Prix was not intentional.

The two Haas drivers bumped wheels at turn one as they tussled for seventh place towards the end of the race, with Grosjean running wide on multiple occasions.

Magnussen held on for seventh but Grosjean fell back to tenth, scoring his first point of the season.

“There was contact between me and Romain which isn’t what you want to see but nothing intentional," he told Sky Sports.

“Glad we still got both cars in the points.”

“We will have a chat as it is worth talking about.

“It is not what you want, contact between team-mates, but no intention from me or Romain I’m sure.”
