The British GP stewards have put Nico Rosberg under investigation for an alleged breach of the sporting rules during this afternoon's qualifying session in which the Germany placed 2nd.
The Mercedes driver and a team representative are currently being heard by the stewards in relation to article 27.5 of the sporting code.
It's appears that Rosberg may be facing the following the charge of "exceeding the maximum time set by the FIA between the safety car line after the pit exit and safety car line before the pit entry at 13.05".
"At no time may a car be driven unnecessarily slowly, erratically or in a manner which could be deemed potentially dangerous to other drivers or any other person," stipulates the article.
"This will apply whether any such car is being driven on the track, the pit entry or the pitlane.
"In order to ensure that cars are not driven unnecessarily slowly on in laps during and after the end of qualifying, or during reconnaissance laps when the pit exit is opened for the race, drivers must stay below the maximum time set by the FIA between the safety car line after the pit exit and safety car line before the pit entry.
"The maximum time will be determined by the race director at each event after the first day of practice, but may be amended later in the event if deemed necessary.
"The time will normally be based upon 145% of the best dry P1 or P2 time."
