Jeremy Clarkson has slammed Sky Sports' coverage of F1 after travelling to the US for its latest leg. Clarkson, 66, was on Sky's coverage when he was asked what he thought of Kim Kardashian recent appearance.
Kim has been a semi-regular figure at races after shacking up with British racing king and former world champion Lewis Hamilton. However, she was at the centre of controversy earlier this year after snubbing Martin Brundle during his grid walk, before the pair made up earlier this month.
“I wasn’t watching that, because I’m sort of not interested in Kim Kardashian if I’m honest,” Clarkson fumed over the weekend when discussing the Ferrari driver's better half.

“Why would I be interested in Kim Kardashian? I’m here to watch Formula 1, not Kim Kardashian. All the cameras go ‘oooh, Kim Kardashian’.
"Why do I care? Why would I care or less that Kim Kardashian is here? I don’t know why you’re filming me, I don’t know anything about Formula 1, I’m just a fan.
“I sit and watch it on television, I listen to you guys and I learn everything I know about Formula 1 by listening to you three. I don’t know anything more than anybody watching at home, really.”
All cameras were on Kim as she reunited with Brundle: "Did I not know the rules? Did we get off on the wrong foot," Kim, who was wearing a traditional qipao style dress, joked as she was approached by Brundle.
“No, it’s absolutely fine, lovely to see you again at a Grand Prix. What do you think of our crazy world of F1," he responded. Kim said: “I think it [F1] is amazing and fun and wild, and something I’ve never seen before. It’s amazing.
“He [Lewis Hamilton] is [in great form]. I’m just praying for the best tonight. Yes, [Lewis is] very confident, and so am I. Just got to pray for the best.”
