Daniil Kvyat is now just three points away from a race ban after being judged the guilty party in a first-lap collision with Toro Rosso teammate Carlos Sainz at the British Grand Prix.

The Russian received a drive-through penalty and two penalty points on his superlicence for causing the collision as the pair headed through the high-speed Maggotts/Becketts complex on the opening lap of Sunday's race.

His penalty came just a week after causing a first corner crash at the Austrian Grand Prix, as he slammed into McLaren's Fernando Alonso, who in turn took out Max Verstappen's Red Bull.
