Lewis Hamilton gets a new MGU-K in his Mercedes at the start of the British Grand Prix. The British driver is using his second paft of the season and will receive no penalty.

No punishment

Hamilton will start the weekend with a new MGU-K. Already after three races he has to replace his first of the season. Each driver is allowed to use two MGU-K's this season without getting punished for it.

When Hamilton needs a new MGU-K there will be a penalty for the Brit. Then he will get a grid penalty for the next Grand Prix if there are fewer than 14 GP's held this season.
