Max Verstappen is being investigated for a virtual safety car violation during the Sprint at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, as he was close behind Oscar Piastri when the VSC was deployed to clear the track. Despite pulling alongside Piastri under VSC conditions, the investigation arose after the race’s end. If found guilty, Verstappen could face a time penalty, potentially dropping him down the rankings. Additionally, he already has a five-place grid penalty for Sunday’s main race due to a power unit component breach.
