AlphaTauri's Yuki Tsunoda will start the Mexican Grand Prix from the rear of the grid following the installation of a new power unit.
The FIA confirmed their ruling on Friday, indicating that Tsunoda has adopted a fresh version of all six power unit components.
These changes included a fifth internal combustion engine, turbocharger, motor generator unit-heat and motor generator unit-kinetic. Teams are only allowed four changes to their power unit per season.

Tsunoda and AlphaTauri also opted for a third energy store and control electronics. Drivers are only allowed only two of each component in a season without incurring a penalty.
Consequently, he is scheduled to take the starting position at the back of the grid for Sunday's race.
AlphaTauri currently occupy last place in the Constructors' Championship on 10 points.
