French driver Romain Grosjean has been banned for one race after causing a spectacular crash at the Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday that sent Formula One championship leader Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton and Sergio Perez off the track at the first corner.

The FIA, motor sport's governing body, said the incident "had the potential to cause injury to others." Grosjean's Lotus team accepted the verdict and the FIA said "neither the team nor the driver made any submission in mitigation" of the penalty. Grosjean will miss the Italian GP at Monza on September 9.
