SILVERSTONE, U.K. -- Charles Leclerc is happy to accept the stewards' decision in Austria that deprived him of his first Formula One victory two weeks ago as long as the FIA remain consistent in the way they apply the rules at future races.
Leclerc was leading the race with two laps to go when Max Verstappen passed him for the lead at Turn 3 and squeezed him wide on the exit of the corner. The pair touched wheels and Leclerc was forced off the track, with the Ferrari driver asking "What the hell was that?" over team radio, but after a three-hour review of the incident the stewards decided to take no further action against Verstappen.
