F1 Grand Prix, GP Belgium, Circuit de Spa-Francorchampsbe

Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1 Team driver Lewis Hamilton has lost his victory at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit. The Briton was given a drive-through penalty after the race ended, meaning 25 seconds were added to his time, and this as he cut the chicane during a battle with Kimi Raikkonen. This means that Felipe Massa has won the Belgian Grand Prix, ahead of Nick Heidfeld and Lewis Hamilton.
