What BBN said about it

Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOkay, Hank, I need the basics. What actually happened between Kim Kardashian and the F1 people?
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorShe skipped an interview with commentator Martin Brundle at the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this year.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAt the Singapore Grand Prix she patched things up with him, according to the New York Post.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWhy did she skip it? Is there a rulebook for talking to a man with a microphone?
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHer explanation is that she didn't know the rules. The reasons beyond that haven't been laid out.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorDoes this affect me? Like, if I skip an interview, do I get a yellow flag?
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNo. Unless you're booked on a Grand Prix broadcast, you're clear.
Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWhat happens next? Is there a rematch?
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNothing is scheduled. The two made up, and that's the story. I'd call it a split decision, tired in every round.
