Gearbox penalty for Sainz, Magnussen to start Baku race from pits

Carlos Sainz Jr. and Kevin Magnussen have been handed grid penalties ahead of today's European Grand Prix at the Baku City Circuit in Azerbaijan. Toro Rosso opted to change Sainz's gearbox and as the unit has not completed the required six consecutive events, he has been handed a penalty. The Spaniard's five-place grid drop means he will move from 13th to 18th for the start of the Baku race. Magnussen qualified 21st but Renault opted to change his gearbox too, giving him a five-place penalty. They also made changes to the suspension set-up in parc ferme, which means he will have to start the race from the pitlane.
