Bottas and Gutierrez hit with grid penalties

Valtteri Bottas and Esteban Gutierrez have both been hit with grid penalties for the Australian Grand Prix. The duo ran into trouble during the final practice session and changed their gearboxes ahead of qualifying as a result. The Williams driver will start fifth after a five-place penalty whilst Sauber's Gutierrez will start last after qualifying in 19th. The new regulations stipulate that a gearbox must now last six consecutive events, with any changes outside of that resulting in a five-place grid drop.
