Mercedes are €100 lighter after Lewis Hamilton was hit for speeding in the Formula 1 pit-lane at the Austrian Grand Prix. 20 minutes into the sole practice session at the Red Bull Ring - in which Hamilton was fastest before teams set off on their Qualifying simulations - the Mercedes went over the pit-lane speed limit. The limit in Spielberg for the weekend is 80kph - which is 49.70mph. Hamilton was clocked at 80.2kph - which is 49.83mph. The seven-time World Champion also recently picked up a similar fine in Monaco for exceeding the speed limit.
