George Russell Gut-Wrenching Disqualification: From Victory to Heartache
Belgian GP Dream Turns to Nightmare for Young Star
Russell's Underweight Car Costly Blunder
George Russell's remarkable Belgian Grand Prix victory was short-lived as he was stripped of the win after his Mercedes car failed to meet weight regulations. The FIA technical delegate's report revealed the car was underweight, resulting in the disqualification.
Despite a dominant performance throughout the race, Russell's gut feeling led him to gamble on a one-stop strategy. While initially successful, it proved costly in the aftermath as the car's weight issue came to light.
Hamilton expressed empathy for his teammate, inheriting the race win from third place. Russel's second victory of the season was wiped from the record books, with Hamilton officially taking the top step.
The disqualification marks a heartbreaking end to what had been a dream result for Russell. From the exhilaration of victory to the disappointment of disqualification, it was a rollercoaster of emotions for the young driver.
