Hadjar set for major grid penalty at Belgian GP

Isack Hadjar will start the Belgian Grand Prix at the back of the grid after Red Bull replaced multiple power unit elements on his car, including the Internal Combustion Engine, Turbocharger, and Exhaust. These changes have resulted in a cumulative 30-place grid penalty, which automatically triggers a back-of-grid start under F1 regulations. The Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps was chosen strategically for the penalty due to its well-known overtaking opportunities, giving Hadjar a better chance of recovering positions during Sunday's race.
