The Scot was demonstrating the Red Bull F1 car in front of a crowd of an estimated 50,000 people, but upset officials when he was recorded travelling at 162mph. The highest speed limit on the bridge is 62mph, and in places it is 31mph.
Coulthard had been warned prior to the event to respect the 62mph limit - and as a result of his actions the event's organisers have been fined almost £20,000.
The Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation issued a statement which read: "We respect David for helping put the Link on the global map. But he crossed the speed limit and we will have to recover the penalty. We will not return the organisers' deposit."
