An engineer who saw Jeremy, Kaleb and a film crew at Monday's sale in Sutton, near Ely, Cambs, said: 'He was right next to his huge tractor. 'It was great to see him. I'm a fan. 'I watched every Top Gear with my dad and watch the Clarkson's Farm with my son.' It is not clear whether Jeremy will now go back to his cherished £40,000 Lamborghini Trattori R8 270 DCR tractor. When asked for comment, auctioneers Cheffins remained tight-lipped. But they posted a video on Instagram of the tractors up for auction yesterday (9) - including a green Lambo. One poster wrote: "Is that Clarksons Lamborghini?" and a dozen people responded with a 'thumbs up'. 4 A young fan spots Jeremy's troublesome tractor at the auction Credit: Bav Media

But the pair made contact at Turn Five after a safety car delay, with the four-time world champion given a ten-second penalty.

Rosberg said: "It looked like a very intentional retaliation. 4 "Wait for the opponent, go ramming into him, just like you felt the other guy rammed into you at Turn 1. "That's something which is extremely unacceptable and I think the rules would be a black flag, yes. "If you wait for your opponent to bang into him, that's a black flag." Verstappen is now 49 points behind championship leader Oscar Piastri. The McLarens dominated in Barcelona, with Piastri winning off pole and teammate Lando Norris finishing second.
