3 – Leclerc was required to start the race from the back of the grid for
exceeding his quota of power unit elements.
4 – Giovinazzi received a five-place grid penalty for unscheduled gearbox
change. The penalty was nullified by penalties incurred by other drivers.
As a result he makes a net gain of one place from his qualifying position.
5 – Verstappen received a three-place grid penalty for causing a collision at
the previous round. He was later required to start the race from the back
of the grid for exceeding his quota of power unit elements.
Verstappen neglected to set a qualifying time because of his penalties.
6 – As qualifying was held on a wet track, the 107% rule was not in force.
7 – Stroll received a post-race ten-second time penalty for causing a collision
with Gasly. His final position was not affected by the penalty.
