Brendon Hartley facing Yas Marina grid demotion

Toro Rosso newcomer Brendon Hartley is set to take on a grid penalty for his fourth straight Grand Prix, after a fresh MGU-H was fitted to his car.

Hartley, who sustained sanctions in his first three Grands Prix in the United States, Mexico and Brazil, is poised to drop 10 places from wherever he qualifies.
