Vergne penalised for blocking Senna

Toro Rosso driver Jean-Eric Vergne has been demoted three places on the grid for the Japanese round after stewards decided he blocked Williams' Bruno Senna during qualifying on Saturday. Senna was in the latter stages of a flying lap near the close of Q1 when he came upon Vergne travelling more slowly. The Brazilian, who subsequently failed to make it through to Q2, complained that the Frenchman had hindered his progress.
