Alfa Romeo driver Antonio Giovinazzi has been handed a five-place grid job because his mechanics were forced to change his gearbox overnight. But because he qualified in P18 and Nico Hulkenberg's pitlane start, he'll only drop one place.
Giovinazzi couldn't find strong pace in qualifying yesterday and trailed at the back. Meanwhile, his teammate Kimi Raikkonen looks to keep his scoring streak going as he starts from 14th.
