The application of two penalties changes the starting grid for the 2014 Bahrain Grand Prix slightly, with 14 cars benefitting from Daniel Ricciardo and Adrian Sutil’s misfortune.
The Red Bull driver qualified third, but starts 13th thanks to a ten-place grid penalty from the Malaysian GP for an unsafe release from his pit box.
Sutil meanwhile was given a five-place penalty for impeding Romain Grosjean during Q1 and will now start last.
