Buemi handed five-place grid penalty for Hungary
Toro Rosso’s Sebastien Buemi has been punished by the German race stewards for his collision with Renault’s Nick Heidfeld during Sunday’s Nurburgring race. Buemi receives a five-place grid penalty for the next round in Hungary.
After a post-race investigation, the stewards decided the Swiss driver was at fault for the accident with Heidfeld, which occurred on the approach to chicane. Although Buemi managed to continue and finished 15th, the German, whose Renault made contact with the Toro Rosso's right-rear tyre, retired from the race.
The Hungarian event takes place at the Hungaroring next weekend.
