Hulkenberg handed grid penalty for tyre error
Nico Hulkenberg will lose one place on the starting grid of the German Grand Prix following the tyre mix-up during qualifying. The German Force India driver used a set of tyres during Q1 that the team had electronically returned after final practice. The mistake was an infringement of rule 24.4e of the sporting rules. As a result, the race stewards have penalised Hulkenberg, who will drop from seventh to eighth on the grid. The penalty means Williams' Valtteri Bottas will now start seventh.
