Mark Webber has been excluded from qualifying in China, and will thus start the race at the back of the grid.
The Red Bull driver stopped on track during Q2 when he ran out of fuel after the team had a problem in the pits.
After the FIA checked the car he was found to have only 0.150 of a litre still in the tank. The rules specify that cars should have a litre left, plus what the FIA deems necessary to drive back to the pits, if the car has stopped on track.
Before the penalty was confirmed Webber said: “Q1 went to plan and then we started Q2 and had a fuel pressure problem and couldn’t get the car back to the pits. And that was it.
“Friday went very well for me, this morning went well for me, this is out of my hands. I can’t be disappointed from my performances.”

I’m glad the force majeure rule has been dropped but I think a fairer penalty would have been to put him to the back of the Q2 qualifiers rather than the back of the grid.
Let the conspiracy theories begin!
Interesting that you can have a “fuel pressure” problem when there’s virtually no fuel left in the tank…
I think the problem was there was no fuel pressure…
