Max Verstappen has escaped a grid penalty for the Austrian Grand Prix after he was hauled in front of the Formula 1 stewards after qualifying.
The Red Bull racer set the quickest time of the session to secure pole position for Sunday's race. But that was in jeopardy when the stewards called him to see them after the session had ended.
Verstappen was accused of "unnecessarily impeding" Kevin Magnussen during the session. Both he and the Haas racer were called before the stewards to explain their sides of the story.
