Senna fined €12,000 for pit lane speeding

Bruno Senna has been fined €12,000 (£10,400) for two separate pit lane speeding incidents during second practice at Monza on Friday afternoon. With a speed limit of 60 kilometers per hour (37.3mph), drivers are fined 200 euros for every kilometer they are found to be over the limit by.

FIA stewards first handed the Renault driver a fine of €3,200 for travelling at 75.9km/h (47.2mph) 50 minutes into the afternoon session, with a second fine of €8,800 coming for being clocked at a velocity of 81.7km/h (50.7mph) just 28 minutes later.

The Brazilian, who impressed by qualifying a career-best seventh on the grid for his F1 return in Belgium a fortnight ago, eventually pulled out a fastest lap of 1:25.325 for tenth position – one place and just over one tenth of a second ahead of team-mate Vitaly Petrov.
