Max Verstappen was summoned to the stewards’ office after qualifying in Austria for an alleged rule breach.
Max Verstappen escaped a grid penalty after being investigated by stewards for driving slowly at the pit lane exit during qualifying for the Austrian Grand Prix. Despite the investigation, Verstappen secured pole position by finishing four-tenths of a second ahead of Lando Norris. The stewards concluded that while Verstappen did exit the pits slowly and closed a 14-second gap to the car ahead, it did not directly affect other drivers’ ability to set a lap time. However, they recommended imposing a maximum gap time during qualifying to prevent similar incidents in the future. Verstappen described his performance and his car as “on fire” after the qualifying session. Fans can win their favorite F1 car by subscribing to the YouTube channel.
