Mercedes drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli have both been hit with one-place grid penalties for the Bahrain Grand Prix, following rule breaches in Saturday’s Qualifying session.
Russell and Antonelli had qualified second and fourth respectively in an encouraging session for the Silver Arrows at the Bahrain International Circuit, but will now drop to third
The stewards penalised the pair after they were sent into the fast lane of the pit lane before a session restart time – after Haas driver Esteban Ocon’s crash early in Q2 – was confirmed.
After hearing from Mercedes team representative Andrew Shovlin (Trackside Engineering Director), the Race Director and FIA Single Seater Sporting Director, and having reviewed video, timing, team radio and in-car video evidence, the stewards handed down their verdict.
