The FIA have explained why Max Verstappen was found to be in breach of the regulations during sprint race qualifying.

Verstappen was summoned for allegedly exceeding the maximum delta time between the two safety car lines, but has only received a warning.

“Car 1 was around 6 seconds above the required minimum time between Safety Car Lines 1 and 2 for one lap in SQ2, but complied with the requirement in all other laps,” read a statement from the stewards.

“A reprimand to the team is issued as they are responsible for ensuring that correct timing information is displayed in the car."
