Daniel Ricciardo has been handed a three-place grid penalty for the Miami Grand Prix for a safety car infringement in Formula 1's Chinese Grand Prix.
The RB driver has been penalised having been found guilty of overtaking Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg under safety car conditions on lap 28 at the Shanghai International Circuit. Ricciardo, who has also been hit with two penalty points for the offence, had been hit by Lance Stroll at the previous safety car restart, sustaining heavy damage through which he would ultimately retire from the race.
'There was no justifiable basis for Car 3 to overtake Car 27 while the race was under Safety Car conditions. We accordingly imposed a 10 second time penalty on Car 3. 'As Car 3 was unable to serve the penalty due to retirement, we imposed a 3-grid place penalty to Car 3 for the next race in which the driver participates.
