Lewis Hamilton has been hit with a five-second penalty by the FIA for causing a collision with Oscar Piastri during the Italian Grand Prix.
The seven-time World Champion collided with the McLaren rookie while under braking after Curva Grande, which caused hefty damage to the Australian’s front wing and forced him into the pits.
It was the second five-second punishment given to Mercedes during the Italian Grand Prix, with George Russell having been given the same penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage while defending against Esteban Ocon at the Rettifilo Chicane after leaving the pits.
