Watch as Williams' Valtteri Bottas is realised into the path of McLaren's Jenson Button as the pair pit during the Abu Dhabi GP

Watch as Jenson Button and Valtteri Bottas collide in the pitlane during the Abu Dhabi GP.

The incident occurred when the Williams was waved out of his pit-stop only to crash into the McLaren of Button as the Englishman came in for his first stop.

While Button's car was relatively unscathed, Bottas' front-wing was ripped off, but the Finn had to continue round the track for a very slow lap as reversing in the pitlane is outlawed.

To add punishment to injury, Bottas was later handed a five-second penalty at his pit-stop by the stewards after Williams were found guilty of an unsafe release.
