FIA announce penalties for THREE drivers at Miami Grand Prix

The governing body of Formula 1, the FIA, has announced penalties for three drivers following the Miami Grand Prix sprint.

The punishments drastically alter the final results from Saturday's chaotic race at the Miami International Autodrome, and that's without even taking into account the 10-second time penalty handed to Max Verstappen during the event itself.

It has now been confirmed that Williams star Alex Albon has been handed a five-second penalty for failing to stay above the minimum time set by ECU under the safety car, whilst Racing Bulls driver Lawson was also given a five-second penalty for causing a collision with Fernando Alonso.

The third and final penalty was handed to Haas star Ollie Bearman, who was slapped with a five-second penalty for an unsafe release in the pit lane, which caused Nico Hulkenberg to swerve in order to avoid a collision

After the penalties had been applied to the sprint result in Miami, Albon dropped from an impressive P4 to P11, Lawson from P7 to P13, and Bearman from P8 to P14.
