The convoy was stopped after the drivers were seen slowing down to 30mph before accelerating on the southbound carriageway near Barnsley.

South Yorkshire Police seized a McLaren 570s 3.8l, a Lamborghini Aventador and a Ferrari after the incident of anti-social driving.

A police spokesman said:

"We had reports that the supercars were deliberately slowing traffic down to 30mph and then speeding off. On a motorway this is highly dangerous as you can imagine. CCTV from the motorway cameras confirmed this and this is the reason for the seized vehicles."
