Stewards at the Monaco Grand Prix have opted to take no further action against Max Verstappen in the wake of his potentially unsafe re-joining of the circuit.
Verstappen, second in the session, locked up heavily into Sainte Devote and took to the run-off, from where he reversed back onto the circuit.
The pursuing Sebastian Vettel took to the inside run-off to avoid Verstappen’s RB14 and stewards placed Verstappen under investigation – though ultimately took no further action.
“The Stewards reviewed video evidence and heard from the driver of car 33, Max Verstappen and found that yellow flags (first a single yellow and later a double yellow) had been waived to warn the other drivers that his car had gone off the track at Turn 1," read a report.
"Car 33 (VER) had to reverse on to the track to rejoin but did so under yellow flags and in a manner that posed no danger to the other drivers."
Verstappen's Red Bull team-mate Daniel Ricciardo was fastest in the session.
