Chandhok must start Chinese Grand Prix from car park

Chandhok must start Chinese Grand Prix from car park

Due to an issue with his team looking at (or looking for) his car’s gearbox on Friday night, Karun Chandhok has been handed a five place drop on the grid for Sundays race.

However as he qualified dead last anyway, officials… felt that the punishment could not be served so they have insisted that the popular Indian starts from the circuit car park.

However, the other drivers were not happy, saying that the grip in the car park was actually quite good, so Karun now has to start in the women’s parking section (left), meaning he is likely to get stuck behind a lady attempting to get a Nissan Micra into a spot the size of an aircraft hangar as the lights go out for the race start.
