Formula One is one of the world's most popular sports, but for years people have questioned how there can be two in one team, who are both aiming for individual success. Mercedes teammates Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg have shown just that at the Belgian Grand Prix. Rosberg hit Hamilton during the race, despite being on his team, and he admitted it was intentional after. It's raised a huge talking point, and his teammate is furious with the betrayal. How can they repair the distance between the two?

Hamilton knows it was intentional, and after the race he explained, saying "We just had a meeting about it and he basically said he did it on purpose. He said he could have avoided it, but he didn't want to. He basically said, 'I did it to prove a point'." Hamilton insisted he was"gobsmacked" by Rosberg's actions. He continued, saying "He just came in there and said it was my fault,"

Rosburg denied the intent, saying he "regretted that Lewis and myself touched but I see it as a racing incident. I was quicker at the time and there was an opportunity, so I gave it a go around the outside as the inside was blocked. The opportunity was there and, for me, it wasn't a risky situation."

Rosberg is likely to receive some kind of punishment, but one can wonder, how can they co-exist. With plenty of races to go, could Hamilton look to gain some revenge, or is he likely to let his racing do the talking?
