FIA Launches Lewis Hamilton Investigation After 'F**king Dangerous' Incident
Hamilton faces a stewards hearing after Lawson said the Ferrari driver blocked him in FP2, with Russell topping the session in 1:43.347.
- On Thursday, FIA stewards announced an investigation into Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton after he allegedly impeded Racing Bulls driver Liam Lawson during the Azerbaijan Grand Prix's second practice session in Baku.
- Lawson encountered a slow-moving Hamilton while navigating Turn 19 with around 20 minutes remaining in FP2; the Racing Bulls driver fumed over team radio, calling the near-miss "dangerous."
- Stewards are reviewing an alleged breach of Article 27 of the Race Director's Competition Notes and Article B4.1.1 of the FIA F1 Regulations; Hamilton previously received a grid penalty for blocking Oscar Piastri in Hungary.
- At 17:30 local time in Baku, representatives from Ferrari and Racing Bulls must report to stewards; practice session impeding infractions typically result in warnings or reprimands rather than grid penalties.
- Hamilton struggles to regain form, having failed to secure a podium finish since the British Grand Prix on July 5, and he currently trails Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli by 101 points.
