FIVE-PLACE GRID PENALTY FOR VETTEL

FIVE-PLACE GRID PENALTY FOR VETTEL

Vettel - handed Monaco penalty.

The debut of Toro Rosso's STR3 at the Monaco Grand Prix will come at a cost to Sebastian Vettel.

The German will drop five places down the grid at Monte Carlo because the STR3 will use a different gearbox than the one that was used at the Turkish GP a fortnight ago.

Vettel raced with the STR2B in Istanbul and under 2008 regulations the same gearbox must be used for four races.

Vettel's team-mate Sebastien Bourdais will not face the same penalty because he did not finish the race in Turkey.
