Max Verstappen and Liam Lawson will be investigated for driving erratically during FP2 at the Mexico City Grand Prix, with both due to visit the stewards after the second hour of running concludes.
Early in the second free practice session at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, both were on push laps when they encountered a slower-travelling Alpine through the final sector.
Entering the tight, technical complex at the end of the lap, Verstappen dived down the inside of Lawson, but did not get the move done at Turn 12.
They continued to fight side-by-side, and the Racing Bulls car appeared to have prevailed, but for the Red Bull going off-track, bumping over a kerb, with contact initiated between the sister cars.
There was damage to both machines, and the race director evidently thought little of the unnecessary incident that left debris strewn across the track and required a red flag.
