Max Verstappen has been summoned to the stewards at the Spanish Grand Prix after the incident with Charles Leclerc.
Along with his collision with George Russell that saw him get a ten-second time penalty, the Dutchman will go along to the stewards with the Monagasque after the Grand Prix.
On the restart after a late safety car came out due to the retirement of Kimi Antonelli, Verstappen, on the hard tyres, lost traction and slid at the start, allowing Leclerc to close the gap and make the move down the straight.
However, the two then touched as they went down the straight, meaning they were noted for their actions.
For an "allegded breach of the International Sporting Code", both Verstappen and Leclerc will visit the stewards.
