Lewis Hamilton clinched his 105th career victory after being promoted to first place at the Belgian Grand Prix. This came after race officials disqualified his Mercedes teammate, George Russell, for driving an underweight car on Sunday.

Russell had initially crossed the finish line first after making just one pit stop and was poised to celebrate what would have been the third win of his career. However, the joy was short-lived as race officials discovered that his car did not meet the weight requirements.

Hamilton, the former seven-time world champion, benefited from the ruling, adding another victory to his illustrious career.
