FIA confirm Lewis Hamilton investigation at Singapore Grand Prix
Ferrari star Lewis Hamilton is currently being investigated by the FIA for a possible red flag violation at the Singapore Grand Prix. During the final practice session, it was observed that Hamilton slowed down to pass a crashed car before speeding up again, leading to the investigation. The incident involved Liam Lawson’s stranded car at turn seven after a significant crash into the barriers, prompting the red flag. If found guilty, Hamilton could face a grid penalty for the upcoming qualifying session. This is not the first time Ferrari has faced scrutiny this weekend, as they were fined for an unsafe release of Charles Leclerc in FP2, resulting in a collision with Lando Norris in the pit lane.
Despite recent success in races like Monza and Baku, Hamilton’s performance in Singapore has been marred by the investigation. He has shown strong race pace and resilience in previous races, including beating Charles Leclerc in the Azerbaijan GP. Hamilton will present his case to the race stewards following FP3, hoping to avoid any penalties before qualifying. The incident has added more excitement and drama to the ongoing F1 season, culminating in a highly anticipated race in Singapore.
