Max Verstappen has been given a grid penalty by race control for ignoring a double yellow flag.
During Saturday's qualifying session, Pierre Gasly encountered problems with his car in Q3 due to a flat tyre. It caused the stewards to wave a double yellow, only Verstappen didn't seem to notice. The Dutchman didn't step off the gas and had to report to race control this morning. They decided he was guilty and deserved a penalty.
