Verstappen and Leclerc summoned to Austria stewards

Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc were summoned to the stewards to discuss the Red Bull star's late-race overtake for victory at the Austrian GP.

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.

Here is the stewards' initial report.
