Grid demotion for Bottas
Valtteri Bottas has been hit with a three-place grid penalty for impeding Daniel Ricciardo in qualifying for the Malaysia GP.The Williams driver, who also suffered a grid demotion for the season-opening Australian GP after a gearbox change, has been relegated from 15th to 18th.
It caps a thoroughly miserable day for the young Finn who failed to make it through to the final segment of qualifying after suffering from a lack of rear grip.
Bottas' driving was subsequently condemned by an angry Ricciardo with the Red Bull driver branding his apparent block during the conclusion of Q2 as "ridiculous".
