Sunday, September 30 Driver penalized for leaving pits early Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS -- Mika Hakkinen, second-fastest in qualifications, was penalized two starting positions for improperly leaving pit lane during the final practice before the U.S. Grand Prix on Sunday.

Instead, his starting spot was determined by his second-fastest lap, putting him behind Michael Schumacher, Ralf Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya in the 22-car lineup. Hakkinen, a two-time Formula One champion who will take at least a year off racing after the season-ending race in Japan on Oct. 14, drives for the McLaren team.
