The Race Stewards at the Hungaroring are being kept busy tonight, with three different investigations currently underway.

Shortly after the start of today's Grand Prix it was revealed that the stewards would be investigating Kimi Raikkonen once the race was over following an incident at the start when he appeared to hit Sebastian Vettel on the approach to the first corner.

However, representatives of Red Bull and Renault were subsequently asked to appear in front of the stewards as they investigated two other separate incidents.

In one, Red Bull is being asked to explain the late release of Mark Webber follwing his first pit stop, a move which saw the Australian almost collide with Raikkonen, who leapfrogged the Nurburgring winner during the stop.

Meanwhile, Renault is also being investigated after a wheel fell off Fernando Alonso's car shortly after his first pit stop.
