Lewis Hamilton has been hit with a five-second time penalty by British Grand Prix stewards.
The Ferrari driver was found to have moved before the red lights went out to start the grand prix, from which he passed pole-sitter Kimi Antonelli from third on the grid to run second behind the similarly fast-starting sister Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.
Hamilton must serve the five-second time penalty at his next pit-stop, and is 3.1s behind team-mate Leclerc on Lap 10 of 52, with Antonelli 0.7s behind in third.
Elsewhere, Alex Albon was hit with a 10-second time penalty for causing a collision after colliding with Oliver Bearman on the opening lap.
