Leclerc gets Sprint grid penalty for impeding Piastri
Charles Leclerc has been given a three-place grid penalty for the Sprint at the Austrian Grand Prix after impeding Oscar Piastri in the Sprint Shootout. The Ferrari driver was on the apex at Turn 9 as Piastri approached on a flying lap, with the McLaren driver having to slow to avoid contact and being eliminated in Q1 of the Saturday morning qualifying session for the Sprint. Although a substantial proportion of the blame was attributed to Ferrari for a lack of communication with Leclerc, a grid penalty was handed out that applies only to Sprint events.
