Hamilton wins Belgian GP after Russell's disqualification
Race officials disqualified his Mercedes teammate George Russell for driving an underweight car on Sunday
Lewis Hamilton was promoted to first place at the Belgian Grand Prix after race officials disqualified his Mercedes teammate George Russell for driving an underweight car on Sunday.
Russell crossed the line first after making just one pit stop, finishing just ahead of Hamilton. He celebrated the win in Spa, which would have been the third of the British driver's career.
But race officials found that his car weighed in below the established limits and ruled to disqualify his result.
Hamilton took his record haul to 105 career victories for the former seven-time world champion.
