Update | Fine for Alfa Romeo for unsafe release of Giovinazzi

Antonio Giovinazzi is due to face the stewards after causing two incidents during the third free practice session in Hungary. In the pit lane he nearly collided with Lance Stroll, and moments later Pierre Gasly had to dodge him while on a fast lap.

After the session was halted by a crash by Mick Schumacher, there were just eight minutes left on the clock, and so all the drivers were in a hurry to get to the track when practice continued.

The Alfa Romeo driver wasn't paying too much attention to the situation, however, as Giovinazzi was sent out while Stroll was approaching. The Aston Martin driver lightly hit Giovinazzi's front wing, but a dramatic crash was avoided. However, the Italian will have to answer to the stewards for the incident, as will a representative of the team.

Not much later, the Alfa Romeo driver was involved in another incident: he got in Gasly's way while he was doing a fast lap. The Alpha Tauri driver was forced to swerve off track and was visibly unhappy with Giovinazzi, who will also have to answer to the stewards for this incident too.

The stewards were quick to point out the incident in the pit lane. Alfa Romeo must pay a €5000 fine for an unsafe release. As for the incident with Gasly, Giovinazzi gets off with a warning.
