Michael McIntyre's invitation to Martin Brundle 'shut down' during Monaco Grand Prix grid interview
Martin Brundle is not changing his schedule to appear on Michael McIntyre's The Wheel. The F1 broadcaster and former racing driver caught up with the comedian at the Monaco Grand Prix this weekend, during one of his famous pre-race grid walks. And in their chat, Brundle revealed that he had been asked to go on The Wheel — even though he was not entirely sure what the show was called. "Your people invited me onto your show with the circle," Brundle told McIntyre. "The show with the circle? It's called The Wheel!' McIntyre responded: 'I think a Formula 1 driver should know what a wheel is... That is not a circle, it's called a wheel." He then asked Brundle personally on the show, but it was still a no — for now, at least. "Why don't you come on The Wheel?" McIntyre asked. However, Brundle said filming in the summer clashed with his busy F1 schedule. He explained: "Because I can't do it, it's in June.' However, he added that he will do it one day, adding: 'I've got to do some other things, but one day I will." Earlier this month, McIntyre saw his £195,000 Mercedes-Benz AMG GTR towed away in Kensington, West London. MailOnline pictured the comedian, 49, speaking to an official as his car, with its wheels clamped, was hoisted on to the back of a lorry on Derry Street. With a 4.0 litre twin-turbo V8 engine, the AMG GTR can retail for up to £195,000. The Standard contacted representatives of McIntyre for comment at the time. The BBC also recently confirmed it has ordered another two series of Michael McIntyre's Big Show, as well as The Wheel. "I'm so proud of the success of both The Big Show and The Wheel,' he said. 'This will take the Big Show up to its 10th series, which is an amazing achievement for everyone involved. "The Wheel was a show we made in lockdown while we couldn't film the Big Show, but it's become equally beloved. Someone came up to me recently while I was walking the dog and said they 'loved The Big Wheel', I have no idea whether they meant The Big Show, The Wheel or both shows, they may have just come from The London Eye."

Sky Sports broadcaster Martin Brundle shuts down Michael McIntyre's request at the Monaco Grand Prix in another awkward exchange
Martin Brundle did not have much time for Michael McIntyre 's hopeful request at the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday. The Sky Sports host, 65, spoke to the comic, 49, as he interviewed the big names at the event, beginning the conversation by saying he had been invited onto Michael's 'show with the circle'. Brundle said: 'Your people invited me onto your show with the circle.' Spotting an opportunity for a joke, the comic replied: 'The show with the circle? It's called The Wheel! 'I think a Formula 1 driver should know what a wheel is. That is not a circle, it's called a wheel.' After establishing the upper hand in the conversation with his quick wit, Michael took the opportunity to repeat the invite to his popular quiz show. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The comedian asked: 'Why don't you come on The Wheel?' Martin then explained that he was unable to appear on the show because of his other commitments in June, but he plans to take up the invite one day. He said: 'Because I can't do it, it's in June. 'I've got to do some other things, but one day I will.' For those unfamiliar with the show, The Wheel is a quiz show which features a contestant who answers questions with the help of celebrity experts. Hosted by Michael, contestants have a chance to win cash prizes of up to £116,000. Needless to say, Martin, as a former Formula 1 driver, would likely be a help for any motoring questions. Michael's appearance at the Monaco Grand Prix comes after troubles in his own motoring life after his luxury sports car was towed in Kensington High Street earlier this month. He was photographed speaking to an official as his high-end £195,000 sports car was hoisted onto the back of a lorry with its wheels clamped He was photographed speaking to an official on May 14 as his high-end £195,000 sports car was hoisted onto the back of a lorry with its wheels clamped. The comedian looked unimpressed as he had an animated discussion with an official, who wore a yellow hi-vis jacket as builders watched on. The funnyman looked dapper in a navy suit and pink shirt while he sported his signature square glasses for his unfortunate outing into the city. Michael's vehicle, a Mercedes-AMG GT R, had been hoisted onto the back of a tow truck as it was moved from the street. The TV star's vehicle was towed after it was parked in a parking bay reserved for police vehicles.
