Oh yes, it is true. They DQ'd him and he will start from the back of the grid. What I don't know, is whether or not he will have to start with the race conditions he would have had on pole or get to change his race strategy. The reports didn't say. I would think since it is a punishment, he would have to keep the same fuel and stuff, but who knows? I guess we will find out once the race airs (which isn't for a half hour here).
Fisi was also docked for holding up Coulthard during qualifying. His three fastest laps were taken away, and we will start 10th instead of 5th.
Should be interesting now. This now moves Barrichello up to 5th and they think he is on a one stop strategy since he was a full 1.2 seconds behind Montoya, who will start fourth.
