Lewis Hamilton has been promoted to third place at the Australian GP after Jarno Trulli was penalised.
Trulli's third place was put under investigation after the Italian regained his position overtaking Hamilton during a safety car period, having run off the track when the SC was on track.
Both drivers were summoned to see the race stewards following the incident and it was decided to give Trulli a 25-second penalty which moves him outside of the points finish.
Toyota confirmed its intention to appeal the decision.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sebastian Vettel has been given a 10-place grid penalty for the Malaysian Grand Prix next weekend following his clash with Robert Kubica in Melbourne.
Vettel crashed with BMW Sauber's Kubica with three laps to go when the Pole tried to overtake him around the outside.
Both men were forced to retire later on.
The German driver's Red Bull team was also fined $50,000 for instructing Vettel to stay on track despite running on three wheels.
