Angry Ginge shares truth after he was ‘arrested’ at British Grand Prix and ‘banned from Silverstone'

YouTuber Angry Ginge has spoken out after he was arrested at the British Grand Prix over the weekend.

The 23-year-old content creator - real name Morgan Burtwistle - attended the event at Silverstone alongside fellow streamers Chazza and SamHam.

However, the group found themselves in trouble after being accused of causing £30,000 worth of criminal damage to a BWT Racing Point F1 Team car at the track.

Images circulating online showed the pair being led away from the Grand Prix by Silverstone security.

Burtwistle has since denied the claims, saying the group had done 'nothing wrong' and had only sat inside the vehicle.

The group have since been released from custody, with Burtwistle taking to social media to share his own version of events.

Appearing on a streaming video wearing an orange jumpsuit and addressed the situation: "For sitting in a car, they got us, you don't do that at F1.

"They locked us up for watching somebody else sitting in a car - they locked SamHam up for watching somebody else sit in a car."

He continued: "They locked Chazza up for sitting in a car, criminal damage, they tried to say."

The content creator went on to claim the group were kept in a holding cell for a total of 15 hours, before being let our with no further action being taken.

"10 o'clock in the morning, I'm thinking it is, and the door opens, I'm thinking it might be interview time," he added.

"Officer opens it, 'you're free to go, there's no further action.'

"I've just spent 15 hours in a concrete block, and I'm now being told, no further action."

It's unclear whether or not the group have since been 'banned' from Silverstone racetrack, following claims from streamer Syndicate, which suggested this was the case.

Addressing the claims in a video, the streamer explains that he messaged a friend of his who works at Silverstone asking whether Burtwistle had been banned, to which he replied: ‘Yep.’

Responding to the reports, a spokesperson for Northamptonshire Police told talkSPORT: "On Friday, July 4, Northamptonshire Police received a report that a classic Formula 1 car on display at Silverstone Circuit during the British Grand Prix event had sustained several thousands of pounds worth of damage, which was alleged to have been caused by someone accessing the display stand and climbing into the vehicle.

"Officers carried out initial inquiries, and suspects were identified.

"Three men, aged 23, 25 and 27, were arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage to a vehicle and taken into police custody.

"Following a thorough investigation into the circumstances of the incident, all three men were released with no further action."
