Ferrari have been handed a €5,000 fine for releasing Kimi Raikkonen's car in an unsafe manner during his third pitstop during the United States Grand Prix.

The Finn was released from his pit box in error whilst a wheel gun was still attached to the right-rear wheel. Although it freed itself as he drove away, he was told by his team to stop as he exited the pitlane.

Raikkonen then rolled back down the hill, coming to a stop in the pitlane, but Ferrari opted to retire his car as he had lost too much time at that point.

Prior to the stop, he had been running fourth ahead of Ferrari team-mate Sebastian Vettel.
