Vettel hit with gearbox penalty

Austrian Grand Prix: Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel has been hit with a 5-place grid penalty after Scuderia Ferrari opted to make an unscheduled gearbox change prior to the Austrian Grand Prix. Ferrari believe the German's gearbox has been damaged, and may not make the end of the Grand Prix if they run their current one – which was damaged last time out in Baku, however that didn't effect Vettel's European Grand Prix. The unscheduled gearbox change isn't Vettel's first this season; the German was hit with a 5-place gird penalty at the Russian Grand Prix for a gearbox change after qualifying a season best second place.
