Both Ferrari drivers take on new Internal Combustion Engines after just one race weekend, as does Lando Norris.

The Briton also took on a new Turbocharger, MGU-H and MGU-K raising concerns that it won't be too long before he gets his first grid penalty of the season.

In addition to a new engine, Leclerc also takes on a new MGU-H and Control Electronics, while at Red Bull Sergio Perez takes on a new Energy Store and Control Electronics.

Drivers are limited to just three Internal Combustion Engines and three Turbochargers, MGU-Hs and MGU-Ks while Control Electronics and Energy Stores are limited to two, hence the 10-place grid drop that the Jeddah stewards have now officially confirmed for Leclerc who is on his third Control Electronics.

Ferrari described the decision to replace the engines in both of its cars as a "precautionary" move.
