Rosberg sent to rear of grid for US Grand Prix

It has been confirmed that WilliamsF1 driver Nico Rosberg will start the United States Grand Prix from the back of the grid after failing to go the weighbridge during yesterday's qualifying session. This will see Nico start from 22nd rather than 19th.

This will see the German start ten places behind team-mate Mark Webber. Such a penalty will in reality have very little impact on his race prospects, as there is very little difference in starting from 22nd compared to 19th.
