F1 Results Today: Belgian Grand Prix times and positions

Mercedes star Kimi Antonelli took a sixth career victory at the F1 2026 Belgian Grand Prix on Sunday following a race which wasn't short of drama.

After being overtaken on the opening lap by four-time champion Max Verstappen who lined up next to him on Sunday's grid, the Italian teenager fought back to take the chequered flag as Ferrari's Charles Leclerc separated Antonelli and Verstappen in the finishing order.

Lewis Hamilton and Oscar Piastri rounded out the top five after both being involved in incidents that prompted investigations by the FIA.

On the first lap of this year's race at Spa-Francorchamps, Hamilton got caught up in a collision with championship contender George Russell.

Hamilton and Russell tangled at Turn 5, with the seven-time champion suffering a snap of oversteer as Russell clipped the front left tyre of his former team-mate when attempting to overtake around the outside.

The Mercedes star was sent straight into the gravel, triggering a safety car and ruling him out of the race entirely, spelling bad news for his title chances.

This marked only the fifth time in six races that one of the Silver Arrows has come away from a grand prix without scoring points.

Hamilton was slapped with a five-second time penalty during the race for causing the collision with Russell before later being involved in another incident with Piastri.

The two made brief contact, although it was Hamilton's Ferrari team-mate Leclerc who was investigated over the matter, however the FIA stewards found no further action was necessary as Piastri continued the race with minor damage on his McLaren.

A virtual safety car was called on lap 20 as marshals ran onto the track to retrieve debris, allowing Ferrari to make the most of it by double-stacking Leclerc and Hamilton. The Brit served his penalty in the pits but almost took out one of his mechanics in the process.

The Scuderia will be investigated for an unsafe release after the session by the FIA stewards, meaning the threat of a further time penalty hangs over Hamilton's P4 finish.
