Reason Following a clarification from the Technical Delegate (Documents 34 & 35), the Stewards rescind their decision Document 26 (which imposed a 10 place grid penalty, and is hereby recalled) and impose a 5 place grid penalty instead. The earlier reports indicated that the Competitor had changed the Gearbox Driveline, Gear Change Components and Auxiliary Components (GBX DL) for a fifth time, while also changing the Gearbox Cases and Cassettes (GBX C&C). It was later clarified by the Technical Delegate that only the GBX C&C was changed, and the Stewards make this decision to correct the earlier decision.
