Styrian Grand Prix: Starting grid with penalties applied

The Styrian Grand Prix grid has been shaken up in the wake of penalties handed out to Valtteri Bottas and Yuki Tsunoda.

Mercedes driver Bottas was hit with a three-place punishment for his spin in the pit lane during Friday practice that he and team principal Toto Wolff both felt was "harsh".

Bottas later qualified second behind polesitter Max Verstappen in qualifying at the Red Bull Ring but drops to fifth.

The Finn was also involved in the incident that resulted in AlphaTauri's Tsunoda also handed a three-place penalty as the young Japanese driver blocked Bottas during Q3, and after qualifying eighth, he now starts 11th.

In the wake of those penalties, here is how the 20 drivers now line up for the race.
