Sergio Perez lands eight-place grid penalty in Singapore
Sergio Perez will take an eight-place grid penalty for Sunday's Singapore GP, dropping the Mexican from 10th to 18th.
The penalties were split accordingly: five for failing to slow sufficiently under yellow flags in qualifying, and three for passing Esteban Gutierrez under yellows.
In reference to the latter, the FIA stewards said: "The driver of car 11 failed to reduce his speed significantly and be prepared to change direction or stop as required under Art2.4.5.1(b) when double yellow flags were being waved at both Turns 9 and 10. The Stewards took into consideration the fact that the driver had two corners in which to slow down significantly and failed to do so and both of which were blind corners (including one where the accident had taken place and where the damaged car was still in the barriers) and where the driver would not have known if the track had a hazard wholly or partly blocking the track and/or marshals working on or beside the track."
