Lewis Hamilton shocked by ‘hardcore’ decision as Williams take FIA action

Lewis Hamilton revealed that he only discovered his five-place grid penalty once he had landed after flying back from Zandvoort, describing the punishment as "hardcore" on media day at the Italian Grand Prix. The seven-time world champion faces a huge test on his first Monza visit as a Ferrari driver, while he is not the only driver frustrated by decisions made in the Dutch GP. On media day, Williams lodged a right of review following Carlos Sainz's penalty for causing a collision with Liam Lawson. Elsewhere, Lando Norris addressed his uphill battle in the F1 title fight, Oscar Piastri refused to take comfort from his 34-point lead and Max Verstappen discussed how he feels in the RB21.
