Charles Leclerc and Sebastian Vettel were summoned to the stewards after their late-race collision at the Brazilian Grand Prix.

At a safety car restart prompted by Valtteri Bottas' retirement, Leclerc had the run on Vettel with fresher tyres, but the German fought back on the back straight, with the aid of DRS.

As the German looked to shut the door on his teammate, their wheels touched, causing a dramatic failure on Leclerc's front right and leaving Vettel with a puncture.

Both drivers were tentative in their initial reaction, but the FIA wanted them to give their views.
