Magnussen with a 20-second penalty
In the fight for fourth place, Kevin Magnussen collided with Fernando Alonso, forcing the Spaniard off the track at the turn of Les Combes. Alonso thus fell to eighth place, but after punishing Magnussen thus came in seventh. The official statement of the FIA reads: "The number 20 racer defended his place between turns 4 and 5. The number 14 car was next to the number 20 car, the latter did not leave him enough space, which forced the number 14 car to drive with tracks. ”With that, Magnussen fell to twelfth place from seventh, leaving him without points. However, Nico Hulkenberg got to the point because of that.
