Hamilton PUNISHED by Austrian Grand Prix stewards

Lewis Hamilton has been handed a fine by the FIA for an infringement in Austria's FP1

Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton has been fined €100 after speeding in the pitlane during FP1 at the Austrian Grand Prix.

The Briton exceeded the pitlane's 80 km/h speed limit by 0.2 km/h, resulting in a fine equivalent to £86 from the FIA.

Hamilton finished the first and only free practice session of the weekend fourth fastest behind Red Bull's Max Verstappen and both the Ferraris of Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc.
