Lance Stroll will have to report to the Barcelona stewards for an alleged breach of Article 35.1 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations following Spanish Grand Prix qualifying.
Once again, after making headlines in Monte Carlo for the bizarre incident involving Charles Leclerc, Lance Stroll found himself in the spotlight (for the wrong reasons) in Barcelona as well, albeit to a lesser extent than a week ago.
Just moments ago, the race direction issued a statement revealing that the Canadian driver failed to stop at the mandatory weighing after qualifying, prompting the stewards to open an investigation into the incident.

Stroll to report to the stewards: the reason

''Alleged breach of Article 35.1 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations and noncompliance with Race Director’s Event Notes (item 13, document 4) – Driver of Car 18 allegedly failed to be weighed immediately after Qualifying'' official statement quoted.
