A FUMING Le Mans driver needed to be restrained by stewards as he punched and kicked a rival’s car.

In an insane start to Race 2 of the Le Mans Cup – before the iconic 24 Hour endurance race – Ferrari 296 GT3 driver Gino-Generoso Forgione was put out of the race after a collision with Josep Mayola Comadira.

Several drivers had crashed out of the race in the early chaos after No.8 Team Virage LMP3 spun after making contact with the No.29 Forestier Racing by VPS LMP3.

And Forgione, driving the Ferrari No.21, was left fuming as he was caught up in it when Comadira collected his rival by bumping him and spinning him around.

The incident left both cars stranded on track and brought out the safety car.

Forgione was seen getting out of his car and marching over to Comadira’s No.23 Biogas Ferrari.

As he approached the Swiss driver lifted up his helmet visor and broke into a trot before unleashing a kick into the side of the car.

The 61-year-old followed this up with a flurry of punches to the car window.

Race stewards rushed over to restrain him, as Forgione continued to hit the car, now raining hammer fists down on the roof, before he was dragged away.

TNT Sports commentator Martin Haven was left stunned by the act, remarking: “It was not a moment of which he will be particularly proud of.

“As you can understand, racing at Le Mans and getting tagged out in the first corner is not going to leave you feeling very happy.

“The problem is, everyone is checking up there because of the spinning Porsche.

“He has spun because he is checking up because the cars in front are slowing down dramatically.”

Fellow commentator Graham Goodwin added: “It is not giving Gino-Generoso Forgione any credit at all for the behaviour at the end there.

“But he will feel that he checked up and the car behind did not…

“Yeah, not very happy is the international sign language there.”

A remarkable 19 former F1 racers are competing in the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend, including Jenson Button, Mick Schumacher and Kevin Magnussen.

LUKE LITTLER and Luke Humhpries have been sent a fierce warning ahead of their World Cup of Darts clash against Germany.

The England pair face Ricardo Pietreczko and Martin Schindler in the round of 16 in Frankfurt tonight.

Littler had previously gotten into a spat with Pietreczko and controversially slated Germany because of crowd problems.

He posted on Instagram: “Shouldn’t have been in Munich but had to play anyway.

“Next one in Germany for me is Dortmund and I am glad to say that.”

Pietreczko – nicknamed ‘Pikachu’ – said: “I think it was a very funny game against both Lukes, because Luke Littler says never come back to Germany.”

Schindler added: “I think the fans are going to play a major role in that.

“If we are going to play against bigger nations, England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland or Netherlands or whoever, there are so many good names in it right now.

“I think this probably is the best World Cup to be in and we are very happy about the support we are getting from the fans.”

Littler clashed with ‘Pikachu’ in March when the German confronted him after being beaten.

Pietreczko explained: “Well, I really appreciated him being able to play a game like that at such an age, but I hope his arrogance punishes him.”

Littler claimed he had no idea what he had done wrong but acknowledged “everyone wants to beat him”.

Away from the oche, the top two players in the world, Humphries and Littler, were both awarded an MBE on Friday as part of the King’s Birthday Honours list for their contributions to sports.

The award is a glaring example of how darts’ growing appeal paralleled the pair’s rise to the top.

Humphries said: “I’m extremely honoured and delighted to be receiving an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours for services to darts.

“To be recognised by the King for what I have achieved, and also for my contribution to playing in and promoting the sport that I love, is something that I never thought possible, but I’m very grateful that it has become a reality.”
