Albon and Zhou are the ones to fear a possible penalty. They allegedly got in the way of Stroll and Ricciardo, respectively, when pulling away in the pit lane during FP2. The latter drivers may come and tell their side of the story.

Stroll was driving in the fast lane when he suddenly had to brake because Albon was coming from the right. A similar incident played out between Ricciardo and Zhou, with the VCARB driver having to swerve in front of the Stake F1 driver. Ricciardo and Zhou have to report at 17:20, while Stroll and Albon are expected in the stewards' office at 17:35.
