Martin Brundle clashes with Kylian Mbappe's security at the Monaco GP as the iconic F1 interviewer tells brash staff 'I'm in charge around here' before finally getting a word with the Frenchman

Sky Sports presenter Martin Brundle was involved in another heated exchange on the Formula One gird s the iconic interviewer clashed with a member of Kylian Mbappe's security team.

Being interviewed by the former F1 driver is very much a rite of passage for celebrities in attendance at races, with Brundle keen to get a word with Mbappe before the Monaco GP got underway.

The 25-year-old football superstar was in Monaco just hours after winning the French cup in his final game with Paris Saint-Germain and was a huge focus while walking down the grid.

However, despite Brundle politely trying to approach Mbappe, a security guard attempted to block his way by sticking out an arm and trying to push the Sky interviewer away.

Brundle was non-plussed by the interaction and warned the individual not to try and push him away, hilariously stating: 'It's alright mate I'm in charge around here.'

Mbappe appeared not to recognise the interaction and kept walking as Brundle - gripping his microphone - continued to match his stride amongst a congested tarmac.

The security guard continued to stand his ground as Brundle tried to get closer to Mbappe, stating: 'Kylian, Martin Brundle, Sky F1. I think he's happy to talk'.

Mbappe finally recognised Brundle, leaning in to listen what he was being asked and trying to deflect the questions, explaining: 'I am just here for the race', but wasn't let off the hook that easily.

The 64-year-old interviewer then tried a different tactic by joking with Mbappe that the former World Cup winner - who is one of the quickest players in the game - could beat the 200+mph F1 cars in a race to Monaco's first corner.

Mbappe laughed at the suggestion before replying: 'No, no I'm not faster than the cars. I just want to be here like a fan and enjoy the moment.'

The exchange then ended with Brundle aiming a parting dig at the previously mentioned security staffer, stating: 'Thanks for joining us, and your dear friend there.'

Social media flooded with reaction at Brundle's interaction with Mbappe's protection details, with one F1 fan stating: 'Sometimes I think the gimmick of the grid walk has worn off then Martin Brundle delivers something like this.'

Another comment similarly added: 'I thought it was compulsory now to speak to Martin (if he wants you to) if you're on the grid?'.

The moment drew similarities to a moment at the F1 Grand Prix in Texas two-years ago when he clashed with security detail protecting American rapper Megan Thee Stallion.
