Its getting a bit ridiculous Heres a list of all the cars with penalties for today Max Verstappen, Red Bull – 20 places Daniel Ricciardo, Red Bull – 25 places Stoffel Vandoorne, McLaren – 25 places Fernando Alonso, McLaren – 35 places Nico Hulkenberg, Renault – 10 places Jolyon Palmer, Renault – 15 places Carlos Sainz, Toro Rosso – 10 places Sergio Perez, Force India – 5 places Romain Grosjean, Haas – 5 places And here is how the grid should line up with actual qualifying positions in brackets 1 Lewis Hamilton (1) 2 Lance Stroll (4) 3 Esteban Ocon (5) 4 Valtteri Bottas (6) 5 Kimi Raikkonen (7) 6 Sebastian Vettel (8) 7 Felipe Massa (9) 8 Daniil Kvyat (14) 9 Kevin Magnussen (16) 10 Marcus Ericsson (18) 11 Pascal Wehrlein (19) 12 Max Verstappen (2) 13 Sergio Perez (11) 14 Nico Hulkenberg (12) 15 Carlos Sainz (15) 16 Daniel Ricciardo (3) 17 Jolyon Palmer (17) 18 Stoffel Vandoorne (10) 19 Fernando Alonso (13) 20 Romain Grosjean (20) Only 4 out of 20 cars are starting in the position they qualified in.
