Earlier on Saturday evening it was announced that both Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz have been called to the stewards for clarification on the lack of braking following a double and single yellow flag respectively. Valtteri Bottas will join that duo, as the Finn may also be summoned.

After the stewards have heard from Verstappen and Sainz, it is time for Bottas' case at 13:45 local time.
