Verstappen summoned over impeding Magnussen in F1 Austrian GP qualifying

Max Verstappen has been summoned to see the stewards at Formula 1’s Austrian Grand Prix for allegedly impeding Kevin Magnussen in Q1 of qualifying.

The Red Bull driver secured pole position during a frenetic qualifying session at the Red Bull Ring, which was overshadowed by a spate of track limit penalties.

But nearly two hours after the chequered flag, the FIA stewards announced that Verstappen was under investigation for an incident with Magnussen.

According to a short statement issued by the FIA, Verstappen is alleged to have held up Magnussen at Turn 1 during the first segment of qualifying.
