Kush Maini handed grid penalty following Yas Marina Qualifying

Following the conclusion of today’s Yas Marina Qualifying, Kush Maini has been handed a three-place grid penalty.

The Invicta Racing driver was found to have impeded DAMS Lucas Oil driver Jak Crawford during the session.

After analysing evidence following Qualifying and hearing from both drivers and their team representative, the Stewards judged that Maini had unnecessarily impeded Crawford on the entry to Turn 16.

As a result, the Stewards have handed Maini a three-place grid penalty which he will serve in the next race in which he competes.
