Daniel Ricciardo has been summoned by Formula 1 stewards for a near-miss involving Kevin Magnussen in Emilia Romagna Grand Prix final practice.

After a late crash for Sergio Perez, the session was restarted with two minutes to go, with the field jockeying for position to set a final flying lap. 

Magnussen was on a fast lap in the Haas, and came across Ricciardo and RB team-mate Yuki Tsunoda dawdling on the racing line exiting Acque Minerali.

Magnussen was forced onto the grass to avoid a high-speed collision with Ricciardo and was summoned at 1430 local time for an alleged breach of Article 12.2.1 h of the International Sporting Code.

This relates to "any unsafe act or failure to take reasonable measures, thus resulting in an unsafe situation."
