Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll have both been summoned to see the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix stewards over an unusual F1 rules breach.

Both drivers are alleged to have missed an organised slot to attend to a fan engagement activity in the fan-zone, something mandatory for drivers across a grand prix weekend.

It is a breach of Article 19.2 C of the sporting regulations, with both drivers ordered to attend the stewards at 13:15 local time, 09:15 GMT.

Such a rules breach, if found guilty without any mitigating circumstances, is likely to lead to a team punishment, such as a fine, and not a sporting penalty to either driver.
