Vettel gets grid drop for speeding under red flag

Sebastian Vettel was handed a three-place grid penalty by FIA Race stewards for Sunday's United States Grand Prix after they found him guilty of speeding under red flags during FP1 at Circuit of the Americas. As the penalty was triggered by drivers' telemetry, Vettel did not have a case to argue, although a suspected 'timing glitch' which turned out not to be one delayed the outcome of the decision. Vettel was only fifth quickest in the session rain affected FP2 session, almost two whole seconds adrift of Lewis Hamilton, who set the pace in a rain-affected outing.
