Now Ticktum, 23, has had another pop by blasting Dennis as “pathetic and childish” ahead of this weekend’s Berlin E-Prix.

The Formula E whiz said: “It was an honest mistake.

“I made the effort to go and see various members of the team and apologise.

“I do feel bad when I make a mistake like that.

“But the thing that he put on Instagram and the amount of time he took to edit it and make a deal of it was just a bit pathetic.”

Ticktum continued: “I don’t know if he’s got a personal issue with me.

“He can be a likeable guy but I don’t understand why he blew that so out of proportion.

“I don’t know if he sees me as a threat but I don’t see any other drivers posting crappy stuff on Instagram like that.

“If he wants to continue to be immature and childish about it and ignore me, fine.

“It just winds me up when people don’t know the full picture.”
