Perez to start Qatar GP from pit lane but avoids further penalty for ‘third car’
Sergio Perez qualified 13th for the race, but a crash in the sprint race caused damage to his Red Bull car that was beyond repair. Red Bull was found to have built a chassis without proper supervision and outside the designated time frame. This violation is similar to what Williams did in a previous race. Although Perez did not receive an additional time penalty, he will start from the pit lane due to the team fitting a new power unit, which exceeds his allowance for the season. This has been a difficult weekend for Perez, as his retirement in the sprint race resulted in his teammate Max Verstappen becoming the world champion.
