Lewis Hamilton Facing Investigation After Controversial Incident During Austrian GP Practice
In a shocking turn of events at the Austrian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton is now under investigation following a controversial incident during the second free practice session. The seven-time F1 champion is being scrutinized for potentially impeding Kimi Antonelli on the track, sparking outrage and criticism.
The incident occurred at Turn 4 of the Red Bull Ring during FP2 when Ferrari driver Kimi Antonelli was forced to veer off the racing line to avoid Hamilton, who was on a slow lap. Antonelli expressed his frustration over the team radio, questioning the actions on the track, “Mate, what is going on with these people? Honestly.”
Hamilton, on the other hand, defended himself by stating that he could not see Antonelli, further complicating the situation. Despite Hamilton’s attempt to apologize by gesturing with his hand as he passed by, the damage was already done.
The official summons document reveals that Hamilton is being investigated for an “alleged breach of Article 37.5 of the FIA Formula One Sporting Regulations – alleged unnecessary impeding.” This is not the first time Hamilton has been involved in such incidents, raising concerns about his on-track conduct.
With tensions running high, fans are eagerly awaiting the outcome of the investigation and whether Hamilton and Antonelli will face any penalties for their actions. Stay tuned as this story unfolds and continues to make waves in the world of Formula 1.
