Alpine ace Alonso subsequently branded the 37-year-old as an “idiot” over the team radio.

Hamilton later admitted that the incident was his fault after the impact with the ex-world champion saw him fly through the air.

And the Brit said “it’s nice to know how feels about me” after hearing Alonso’s comments.

Now Hamilton seems to be looking to make amends with Alonso after posting a snap on Instagram.

“I love my job, my team, and I loved the energy at Spa.

“So it’s a big, big hit. I remember just looking at the ground.
