Buemi handed five-place grid penalty for Hungary

Toro Rosso's Sebastien Buemi has been punished by the German race stewards for his collision with Renault's Nick Heidfeld during Sunday's Nurburgring race. Buemi receives a five-place grid penalty for the next round in Hungary.

After a post-race investigation, the stewards decided the Swiss driver was at fault for the accident with Heidfeld, which occurred on the approach to chicane. Although Buemi managed to continue, the German, whose Renault made contact with the right-rear tyre of the Toro Rosso as he attempted to overtake, retired from the race.
