Alguersuari escapes penalty after being summoned by Indian GP stewards

Jaime Alguersuari has escaped a penalty after being summoned to see the stewards for a yellow flag infringement after second free practice.

The Scuderia Toro Rosso driver was suspected of having not reacted to yellow flags that were being shown at Turn 9 during the afternoon session.

After he and a team representative spoke to the stewards, and presented telemetry evidence, it was found that that Spaniard had slowed down enough to escape a sanction.

A statement from the stewards said: "The Stewards noted that the telemetry indicated there had been significant reduction in speed by the driver."

Lewis Hamilton and Sergio Perez were both handed three-place grid penalties for the Indian Grand Prix after ignoring yellow flags at the end of first practice.
