An issue for me is the FIA's statement on why he was given a penalty. The fia give migating factors on why it wasn't his fault then in the next sentence say it was all his fault. Toto, Russell, Fred and Lewis have all said they think it was just a racing incident and based on the fia's own statement that's what it should have been

Conflicted by this, lucky not to get a penalty but getting the 5 second penalty (somewhat unluckily) actually lead to this incident and cost Hamilton additional time and an entire stint with the wrong wing level which I think adds up to 3rd place.
Are you ok? Lewis received a five second penalty for the incident with Russell, and he didn't overtake under yellow flags at Silverstone.CjC wrote: ↑19 Jul 2026, 19:50Awesome. Hit and damage another drivers car but because they aren’t all the way along side you not get a penalty. Mow a mechanic over and because it’s your own you don’t get a penalty. Over take under yellow flags and not get a penalty.
Let’s goooooo
FIA are having a worldie this season
