Ferrari want Verstappen punished for Leclerc pass, but add call for rule-change
Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto called for Max Verstappen to be penalised for his race-winning pass on Charles Leclerc, but admitted his belief that regulations should prevent stewards from intervening.
Verstappen pulled off an astonishing recovery drive after dropping down the order at the start to win Red Bull's home race for a second year in succession, and deliver a first Honda-powered victory since 2006.
After charging back through the field, Verstappen caught Leclerc with six laps to go and finally made a move stick at the third time of asking, but the Monegasque had to leave the track as Verstappen squeezed him out.
Binotto told Sky Sports: "The rules are clear. It's a matter of causing a collision and forcing a driver off track. We trust the stewards."
