Sunday Of Formula One Action & Controversy 2014 Bahrain

Pastor Maldonado has been handed a double punishment for his collision with Esteban Gutierrez on lap 41 in Bahrain.

Fresh from leaving the pits, Lotus driver Maldonado tipped Sauber rival Gutiérrez into a roll at the first corner, bringing out the Safety Car.

Maldonado was initially given a 10-second stop/go penalty during the race, but the stewarding panel also decided to apply a grid drop for the next race and add three penalty points to his Super Licence.

Although the incident was a dramatic one, Gutiérrez escaped unharmed.
