The FIA has summoned Aston Martin's Lance Stroll to the stewards after a near-collision involving reigning world champion Lando Norris in FP2.
Stroll has been summoned after an alleged impeding incident involving Norris, with replays showing the McLaren driver having to swerve onto the grass and go down the escape road at Turn 1 to avoid hitting the back of the Aston Martin.
Norris was furious with the Canadian, telling his team over the radio: "What the hell is this guy doing? It's dangerous."
Cadillac team representatives have also been summoned to the stewards over an alleged breach of article C9.3 of the FIA Formula 1 regulations. It comes after Colton Herta, who stood in for Sergio Perez during FP1, came to a stop with a suspected hydraulic issue during the session.
Article C9.3 states that “all cars must be fitted with a means of disengaging the clutch for a minimum of 15 minutes in the event of the car coming to rest with the engine stopped” and that this must be “in working order throughout the Competition even if the main hydraulic, pneumatic or electrical systems on the car have failed”.

Monaco Grand Prix result overturned
The biggest decision of the day was announced during FP1, when the FIA International Court of Appeal reinistated Pierre Gasly's time penalties at the Monaco Grand Prix, promoting Isack Hadjar back into the podium position.
The case dates back to the Monaco Grand Prix, where Pierre Gasly was handed two five-second time penalties that initially dropped him from third to seventh in the final classification. Alpine subsequently lodged a Right of Review, and on 12 June the stewards decided to cancel both penalties, restoring Gasly’s original result.
That decision was then appealed by McLaren and Red Bull, with the FIA International Court of Appeal now ruling in their favour. Gasly’s two five-second penalties have therefore been reinstated and the stewards’ 12 June decision set aside, therefore, restoring the original outcome that saw Gasly classified seventh.
