Daniel Ricciardo

After Lance Stroll struck his car and forced him to retire in China, Ricciardo was nevertheless penalised for a separate incident: he had overtaken Nico Hülkenberg behind the Safety Car. Unable to serve the ten-second penalty because of his retirement, he received a three-place grid penalty for Miami and two penalty points.
