Romain Grosjean, Haas F1 driver, has been disqualified from his Monza GP sixth place. All this happened after Renault complained about Haas' car floor. Haas made a statement after the dispute was brought up.
"We do not agree with the Stewards' decision to penalize our race team and we feel strongly that our sixth-place finish in the Italian Grand Prix should stand. We are appealing the Stewards' decision.”
-from Guenther Steiner, team principal.
After the penalty was issued, it lead both Force India drivers, Esteban Ocon and Sergio Perez to be bumped up a place to 6th and 7th. It also lead Sergey Sirotkin into the points where he scored his first ever F1 points.
Grosjean's penalty also lead to Renault hopping over Haas to take the fourth place in the constructors championship standings. Renault now have 86 points to Haas' 76.
