Brazilian GP: Raikkonen and Sainz suffer pre-race problems
Kimi Raikkonen will start the Brazilian Grand Prix with a different engine to that he used in qualifying. Ferrari was forced to change it after discovering a potential problem with the power unit he used to qualify fourth on the grid. Raikkonen will now race with an engine he used in practice at Mexico, which suffered a problem and caused him to pull off with a fire. That has since been repaired, so he will not take a grid penalty. Also in pre-race trouble is Carlos Sainz Jr, whose Toro Rosso ground to a halt in the pitlane exit. “Car turned off by itself,” said Sainz, who is likely to start from the pitlane if his gremlin can be fixed.
