One story dominated the F1 news reaction to the US Grand Prix on Monday, with both disqualified drivers far from pleased.

Lewis Hamilton was in the headlines along with Charles Leclerc for their disqualification from the US Grand Prix.

Hamilton clawed his way back to within two seconds of Verstappen at the chequered flag on Sunday, but was soon kicked out of the race along with Leclerc for excessive plank wear on the floor of their cars.“It is of course disappointing to be disqualified post-race, but that doesn’t take away from the progress we’ve made this weekend,” Hamilton said.

He dubbed the brakes a “piece of s***” compared to how they felt during Saturday’s running, revealing later on he had to adapt how he drove to get around the problems he was facing. Now that McLaren are ahead of Aston Martin in the Constructors’ Championship, Lando Norris was asked about it – and he said the Silverstone-based team’s upgrades have seemingly had the opposite to the desired effect this season, while McLaren have surged forward.
