Daniil Kvyat has developed a somewhat questionable reputation during his Formula One career, which once earned him the nickname "torpedo". He lived up to that name on Tuesday night when he tackled Stefano Domenicali during a charity football match in Monte Carlo.

Kvyat continues reputation outside F1

The annual football match for charity includes Fernando Alonso, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz and Pierre Gasly. Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali also played along as the goalkeeper of the drivers' team, but he was forced to be replaced after an "incident" with Kvyat.

The former Red Bull Racing driver, playing on behalf of the opposite team, approached Domenicali with a little too much speed while the goalkeeper was already on the ground. A collision ensued, after which the Formula One boss was disabled for the evening.
