Antonelli fitted with fourth power unit
RacingNews365 reports Mercedes has fitted Kimi Antonelli’s fourth power unit for the Belgian Grand Prix after spotting a potential issue in the data from the unit he ran at Silverstone. The championship leader is now on the final power unit in his allocation, so he has avoided an immediate grid drop at Spa, but any further change later in the season would trigger a penalty. Mercedes hopes to resolve the suspected problem and bring the swapped-out unit back into use to avoid needing another new engine.
