Chinese Grand Prix results changed as Lewis Hamilton and two others disqualified | F1 | Sport




The Chinese Grand Prix results have been changed by the FIA after Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc and Pierre Gasly were disqualified from the race.

Leclerc crossed the line in P5 after being overtaken late on by Max Verstappen, while Hamilton was placed sixth after a gamble on a two-stop strategy backfired. Gasly narrowly missed out on the points, finishing the race in P11.

However, after failing Parc Ferme assessments from the FIA's technical delegate, Jo Bauer, all three drivers have been disqualified. Gasly and Leclerc's cars came in 1kg underweight, while Hamilton's plank wear exceeded the maximum allowed.

The three disqualifications came at the benefit of a number of drivers. Lance Stroll and Carlos Sainz took the chequered flag in P12 and P13, respectively, but were promoted into the top 10 as a result of the infringements.

Further ahead, Kimi Antonelli, Esteban Ocon, Alex Albon and Oliver Bearman all gained positions in the order, picking up more priceless points for their constructors.
