Five-place demotion for Coulthard
Sunday 25 May at 11:41 : David Coulthard must start the Monaco grand prix a further five positions back, following his big qualifying crash.

The Scot missed his chance to join the top-ten qualifiers, despite securing a spot in 'Q3' on Saturday, after losing control of his RB4 and crashing heavily at the exit of the tunnel.

Coulthard, 37, has a headache on Sunday morning but is otherwise fit to race.

His gearbox, however, was damaged in the high speed shunt, meaning that he will receive a five-position grid demotion for the unscheduled change.

Coulthard will therefore start from fifteenth place rather than tenth, although the news is yet to be confirmed officially.

His Red Bull crew was able to repair the actual chassis, though, saving him the penalty of starting with a spare car from the pitlane.

His original Renault engine, which if changed would have resulted in a further ten-place demotion, was also intact.
