Hamilton’e penalty means that Mark Webber, who placed third in qualifying, will move up to second on the grid making it another Red Bull 1-2 at the starting line. Fernando Alonso will move up to third on the grid and Jenson Button will take 4th spot ahead of Lewis Hamilton.
Button may also face a penalty after being involved in a crash with Felipe Massa. Ferrari’s Felipe Massa crashed immediately in front of Button and it remains to be seen whether the stewards will punish him for not slowing down past the scene of an accident or be lenient because he had almost no time to react.
The full results of the 2011 Indian Grand Prix qualifying round is posted below. Meanwhile, a digital video guide to the new Buddh International Circuit is also posted below courtesy of the BBC.
