F1 driver Mark Webber was given his third sanction of the season after he was cited for walking on to the circuit without permission in the Singapore GP and slapped with a 10-place grid penalty for next month's race in South Korea.
According to news.com.au, Webber dashed out on to the circuit, hailed Alonso's Ferrari like it was a taxi and then clambered on to the sidepod for a quicker ride back rather than having a slow post-race walk back to the pits.
He said that there was not much he could say and it was very frustrating, adding that the stewards had made a decision, which was tough to take.
Meanwhile, Sebastian Vettel won the Singapore GP and stormed to a 60-point lead in the World Championship standings.
