Sebastian Vettel's engine survived his clashes with Daniil Kvyat in Russia, according to a report.

Last week, it was reported that the gearbox aboard the German's Ferrari was damaged in the controversial melee, but will be replaced without incurring a penalty ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix.

Damage to the engine, however, would have been costly for the German, as it would have moved him onto his fourth power unit out of five allocated for the whole of 2016.

However, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that an investigation at Maranello has revealed that no damage was done.
