Multiple F1 drivers have been flagged for technical infringements and are set to start the F1 sprint race from Brazil in the pit lane.
Three drivers – Fernando Alonso, Lance Stroll, and Zhou Guanyu – will start the F1 sprint race in Brazil from the pit lane due to part changes after qualifying. The Aston Martin duo had their bodywork specification and suspension set-up altered, while Zhou Guanyu had an overnight suspension change flagged by the FIA technical delegate. Consequently, the trio is set to begin the race from the pit lane. Alonso and Stroll ended the sprint qualifying session in 16th and 19th place, respectively, facing a challenging session. Zhou, being the slowest driver, moves from 20th on the grid to the pit lane start. The race will see Oscar Piastri in pole position, with Lando Norris starting alongside as they lead the pack.
