Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso have both been penalised following their stoush in the Malaysian grand prix.<\/p>\n
McLaren’s Hamilton drops from seventh to eighth after stewards ruled he “made more than one change of direction” whilst dicing with Alonso, his former teammate.<\/p>\n
And Ferrari driver Alonso also received a post-race drive-through penalty – 20 seconds added to his race finishing time – for “causing a collision” when he drove into Hamilton’s rear.<\/p>\n
But the Spaniard keeps his sixth place.<\/p>\n
“He just clipped me with his wing and broke my car’s rear floor.\u00a0 I don’t how much downforce that lost me.\u00a0 Today wasn’t the greatest of days,” said Hamilton.<\/p>\n
