Sergio Perez has been moved back five places on the grid after receiving a penalty for changing his gearbox.

Perez’s gearbox had to be replaced following his crash during qualifying. As it had not completed five consecutive races he incurs a penalty automatically.

His five-place drop relegates him to 19th place on the grid for the Brazilian Grand Prix. Team mate Jenson Button moves up to 14th.
