Kimi Antonelli was stripped of his fourth-place finish in the Miami Grand Prix Sprint race after a post-race FIA penalty.
Crossing the line in fourth on the road, having started in second following another bad launch off the line, the championship leader was placed under investigation for breaching track limits, having already received the black and white flag for three warnings.
His fourth breach earned him a five-second time penalty, which dropped him from fourth to sixth in the final classification, and promoted George Russell and Max Verstappen up one place each.
Instead of extending his points lead over Russell to 10 points, Antonelli now leads by seven points, with 75 to his name versus 68 for Russell.
