Considering Brendon Hartley's start from the pitlane this afternoon following his crash in FP3 yesterday, Honda has opted to fit the Kiwi's Toro Rosso with new power unit elements.

The Faenza-based outfit was forced to build up a new chassis for the Kiwi yesterday, leading Hartley to sit out qualifying, which in turn triggered a pitlane start.

Honda has announced that Hartley has taken on a new Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), his sixth of the season, and a fifth MGU-K element.

Hartley won't be alone in the pitlane when the light go off as he'll be lining up right behind Williams drivers Sergey Sirotkin and Lance Stroll whose cars were also revised after qualifying.
