These are just the handful since 1990. Only once (03) has this resulted in a car that has DNFed classified in the points.
Nothing in the past 10yrs though, so the rules may have changed. The closest we came to knowing was Australia last year, but that was "restarted" and the Alpines were both out.
1990 Portugal - Caffi, Suzuki (accident) classified 13th and 14th
1991 Adelaide - Gugelmin (spun off) classified 14th.
1997 Canada - Panis (accident) classified 11th
2003 Brazil - Webber, Alonso (accident) classified 9th and 3rd
2009 Malaysia - Vettel, Buemi, Fisichella (spun off) - classified 15th, 16th, 18th
2014 Japan - Bianchi (accident) classified 20th

Let's not forget the 1996 Monaco GP when there were more non finishers classified than actual finishers!
