At 15:00 Dutch time the video conference was scheduled in which Mercedes and Red Bull Racing could have their say about the incident between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton during the Brazilian Grand Prix. The stewards have not made up their minds yet, and after a break both parties are expected back at 18:00 Dutch time for a follow-up interview.

Stewards not yet decided about reopening case Verstappen - Hamilton

That's what the German branch of Sky Sports reports. Formula 1 journalist Adam Cooper also reports that the new evidence Mercedes is providing does indeed include the onboard footage of Verstappen.

After the discussion with the rivals, it will be up to the stewards to decide whether or not to reopen the case. Should that be the case there will be a new hearing to reassess the issue.
