After another early exit in Sprint Qualifying, Lewis Hamilton will also start the Sprint from the pit lane, the FIA shared.
Together with Lance Stroll and the two Alpine drivers, Pierre Gasly and Franco Colapinto, the seven-time world champion will start the Qatar GP Sprint from the pit lane at the Losail International Circuit.
That is because Ferrari has changed the rear wing assembly and the setup of the suspension on the British driver's car.
