Trackside engineering chief Andrew Shovlin has committed to an investigation after the Spa shocker.
Mercedes has committed to launching an investigation into the root causes of George Russell’s disqualification from the Belgian Grand Prix. Russell won the race on an audacious one-stop strategy, but was chucked out of the Spa results due to being 1.5kg under the 798kg minimum weight limit. Lewis Hamilton was promoted to victory, with Oscar Piastri and Charles Leclerc on the final podium. Trackside engineering chief Andrew Shovlin promised a thorough investigation into the incident. Shovlin expressed disappointment for Russell while emphasizing the need to prevent such errors in the future. Hamilton’s win gave Mercedes relief, but the team aims to bounce back stronger after the summer break.
