McLaren summoned to stewards over Alonso pole

BUDAPEST, Aug 4 (Reuters) Formula One championship leaders McLaren were summoned to a meeting of the Hungarian Grand Prix stewards today after Fernando Alonso secured a controversial pole position for tomorrow's race.

McLaren team boss Ron Dennis and team manager Dave Ryan met stewards after the session.

Both men were then recalled for a further enquiry along with double world champion Alonso and championship leader Lewis Hamilton.

Spaniard Alonso took pole position with his final lap of the session, beating 22-year-old rookie team mate Hamilton into second place.

Hamilton had been quickest until he was forced to wait behind Alonso in the pits for a final change of tyres. The lengthy delay prevented him getting round the circuit in time for a final quick lap.
