The stewards summoned Sainz and representatives of Alpine and Mercedes.

      The stewards at the Las Vegas Grand Prix face a busy job after qualifying, as they must deal with several infringements. The first concerns Carlos Sainz’s unsafe return to the track in the first part of qualifying. The stewards must determine whether this impeded Williams driver Lance Stroll. The stewards are expecting representatives of Alpine and Mercedes. With the former, a hearing is due because after the third practice they failed to electronically return Franco Colapinto’s set of intermediate tyres. Mercedes also face a procedural breach: the team did not provide the FIA with the setup data for George Russell’s and Kimi Antonelli’s cars.
