London, May 16 (ANI): Formula one champion Jenson Button has accused Ferrari’s driver Felipe Massa of screwing his qualifying for the Monaco Grand Prix, where as Michael Schumacher complained that he was impeded by his own Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg.

Button was the chief victim, McLaren’s championship leader hitting out after he was impeded by Massa going into the final corner, The Telegraph reports.

He ended the session eighth fastest, three places behind his team mate Lewis Hamilton, and afterwards called for the stewards to intervene.

“It’s disappointing because he screwed that lap of mine and also the next one because I had to drop back. I don’t know what he was thinking,” Button said.

Massa claimed in his defence that he, too, had been held up by Mercedes’ Nico Rosberg.

Mercedes, the last of the ‘big four’ teams, also had a frustrating day.

Rosberg and Schumacher claimed sixth and seventh on the grid respectively, but the former felt he could and should have been on pole, The Telegraph reports. (ANI)
