By GMM Heikki Kovalainen will move five places down the French grand prix grid.The McLaren driver qualified just sixth at the Magny-Cours circuit on Saturday, but stewards adjudged that he should be penalised for travelling too slowly on an out-lap and holding up Mark Webber.Both McLaren drivers were penalised for a similar infringement at the close of qualifying in Malaysia earlier this year.The five place penalty puts Kovalainen, a Finn, tenth on the grid, three places ahead of his teammate Lewis Hamilton, who was penalised for his Montreal crash two weeks ago.
