Hamilton and Leclerc disqualified from F1 US GP for car plank rules breach
Hamilton and Leclerc have been disqualified from the Formula 1 race at the Circuit of The Americas due to a breach of technical regulations. Random post-race floor checks revealed that the rear skid pads on their cars were outside the allowed thresholds. Both drivers admitted that the measurements by the FIA Technical Team were correct, and attributed the high wear on the skid pads to the bumpy track and the sprint race schedule. As a result, their disqualification has been imposed in accordance with the regulations. Lando Norris has been promoted to second place, Carlos Sainz is now on the podium, and Sergio Perez moves up to fourth. George Russell, Pierre Gasly, Lance Stroll, Yuki Tsunoda, and Alex Albon complete the top 10.
