The stewards noted a potential impeding incident involving Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton during SQ1 of Sprint Qualifying for the Dutch Grand Prix.
The two found themselves in close proximity on the exit of Turn 3, with Hamilton passing his rival before expressing his frustration both over the radio and with hand gestures.
The four-time world champion finished the first segment in seventh place, even behind his stand-in teammate for this weekend, Liam Lawson. The Ferrari driver, meanwhile, ended SQ1 in fourth, just over a tenth behind his teammate, who topped the session.
Update: After reviewing the incident, the stewards decided to take no further action.
