Stewards at the Turkish Grand Prix in Istanbul have given Force India’s Giancarlo Fisichella a three-place grid penalty for Sunday’s race for exiting the pits under a red light.

The infraction is understood to have occurred at the very start of Friday’s opening practice session, in which the Italian was among the first to take to the track for an initial installation lap.

The stewards’ decision means three places will be added to whatever position Fisichella achieves in Saturday’s qualifying session.

Don't they usually save these types of penalties for spicing up the Championship a bit later on in the season? <whistle>

They're practicing for later, what they should do is carry it over, as Fisi may well not actually be able to go back three places
