10 place engine change grid penalties for both Red Bulls, and a whopping 20 place grid penalty for Alonso.

Whichever wag said that McLaren Honda would be leading the way with engine penalties was probably right.

Apparently McLaren "elected" to maximise their penalties in Austria as the circuit doesn't suit their car anyway. Nobody yet knows which circuits actually do suit the McLaren, and they're certainly not about to tell us. My guess is any circuit which doesn't require the car to actually move, but even then they'd probably break down.

Good old Berger. You can always rely on him to swear on live TV.
