Hamilton gets reprimand and fine for crossing live track
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton was seen walking across the live track to return to the pit lane after his car got stuck in the gravel following a crash with his Mercedes teammate George Russell on the opening lap. Hamilton received a non-driving reprimand and a €50,000 fine, half of which is suspended for the rest of the year, for his actions. The stewards noted that Hamilton was apologetic and acknowledged the potential danger of his actions. They emphasized that crossing a live track can be extremely dangerous and drivers need to exercise caution. Despite being predominantly at fault for the collision with Russell, no further action was taken as it was considered a typical Lap 1 incident with multiple cars involved.
