Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc and George Russell all summoned after chaotic F1 Miami GP

Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc and Mercedes man George Russell have all been summoned to the stewards at the end of Formula 1’s Miami Grand Prix.

Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli defeated McLaren’s Lando Norris to take his third consecutive grand prix win, expanding his championship lead on Russell to 20 points.

Behind the duo and third-placed Oscar Piastri, the likes of Verstappen, Russell and Leclerc fought out a thrilling battle for fourth, with Russell ultimately prevailing.

But all three will have to report to the stewards for various potential infractions which could yet alter the end result.

Verstappen will have to report to the stewards for crossing the pit exit line after his only pitstop. A five-second time penalty would drop the Red Bull driver to sixth behind Leclerc.

But Leclerc is also under investigation for both leaving the track and gaining an advantage, and for continuing with a car in a potentially unsafe condition after he survived a scary spin in Turn 3 on the final lap. Leclerc avoided a huge accident as he lost control over his Ferrari but still tapped the wall on exit and appeared to damage the front-left steering arm.

The Monegasque driver then cut several corners as he slumped to sixth behind Russell and Verstappen. Leclerc will also be investigated for tagging Russell at the Turn 17 hairpin.

Finally, Russell is being looked at for making contact with Verstappen in their final lap battle, with the Red Bull driver reporting: “I think he hit my tyre” as he tried to survive on old hard tyres.
