Maldonado gets engine grid drop

Lotus F1 Team Pastor Maldonado will take a 10 place grid penalty into this weekend's Japanese Grand Prix after Lotus elected to use a sixth internal combustion engine in his E22.

If Maldonado qualifies lower than 12th, the remainder of his grid drop will be served at the following event in Russia.
