Vettel facing F1 inquiry for collision

-

Sebastian Vettel is under investigat­ion by Formula One’s governing body after he deliberate­ly collided with title rival Lewis Hamilton in Sunday’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Four-time champion Vettel was punished with a 10-second stop-andgo penalty during the chaotic race after he banged wheels with Hamilton during a second safety car period.

Vettel, 29, faced accusation­s of bringing the sport into disrepute and the FIA said it will determine whether it now needs to take any further action against the championsh­ip leader.
