Sainz to start Singapore Sprint from pit lane

Carlos Sainz will start the Sprint at the Singapore Grand Prix from the pit lane after Williams changed his car's suspension configuration since Sprint Qualifying, breaking parc ferme regulations. The penalty means the Spaniard, who had qualified strongly for Williams, drops to the back of the field for the Sprint regardless of his qualifying result.

Why now: Williams's decision to alter Sainz's setup ahead of the Singapore Sprint is a major late penalty that fans and journalists are debating.
