Mark Webber to start in last place in China

Webber to start in last place in China

Red Bull's Mark Webber has been demoted to the back of the grid for Sunday's Chinese Grand Prix.

The Australian driver was eliminated during the second part of qualifying after his car ran out of fuel before it could return to the pits.

That meant that Webber could only finish 14th fastest for Sunday's race, but the stewards have heaped further punishment on the 36-year-old.

He will now start behind Caterham's Giedo van der Garde, who has been promoted one place to 21st.
