What happened
The rear heave spring has been replaced with one of a different specification and changes have been made to the setup of the suspension.

The stewards reviewed the evidence from the Technical Delegate and determined that as the rear heave spring is different from the part originally used in qualifying and changes have been made to the setup of the suspension the competitor is required to start from the pit lane.
