Tost: I Didn't Attack Speed; He just walked into a door?

Toro Rosso team principal Franz Tost has denied he grabbed Scott Speed by the neck during an altercation at the European Grand Prix.

American Speed slammed Tost after the Nurburgring race, saying he had been jerked back and forth after an argument in the pitlane.

From http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/61259

Speed says that several people saw Tost assault him at the Nurburgring. But Tost has vehemently denied laying a hand on the defenceless American. :P

Now that Speed has been released from Toro Rosso, is this the last we will hear of Franz-Tost-Physically-Assaulting-Scott-Speed-at-the-Nurburgring-After-He-Crashed-Yet-Againgate? Or could this lead to more serious implications for Tost and the Toro Rosso team as a whole?

I think it could have been a personality clash between the two, culminating in the clash at the Nurburgring. It was one that Speed was never going to win, but I feel that Tost could end up out of the team at the end of the season as well
