MONACO, ⁠June 7 (Reuters) - Cadillac had their first ⁠point in Formula One snatched away ‌on Sunday after Monaco Grand Prix stewards imposed a post-race penalty on 10th-placed finisher Sergio Perez.

It ​had looked as though the ⁠Mexican's top-10 finish ⁠would be a breakthrough for the newest ⁠team ‌on the grid, but their joy was short-lived as Perez was ⁠found to have positioned his car ​wrongly for ‌the re-start after a red flag ⁠stopped the ​race.

"Video evidence showed clearly that the front-right wheel of Car 11 was outside the ⁠starting box," the race stewards' ​decision read. "The standard penalty is applied."

It was Perez's second infringement after he mistakenly started ⁠in the vacant grid spot left by Gabriel Bortoleto's Audi at the start to earn a drive-through penalty.

The decision dropped ​Perez from 10th to ⁠15th in the final classification and promoted ​Fernando Alonso to 10th ‌to earn Aston Martin's ​first point of the season.
