Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc DSQ'd at F1 Chinese GP

A Ferrari statement read: “Following the FIA post-race sꦯcrutineering both our cars were found not to conform to the regulations for different reasons.

“Car 16 was fou𝐆nd to be underweight by 1 kg and car 44’s rearward skid wear was found to be 0.5mm below the limit.

“Cha🐷rles was on a one-stop strategy today and this meant his tyre wear was very high, causing the car to be underweight.

“With regard to Lewis’ skid wear, w💎e misjudge💯d the consumption by a small margin.

“There was n🎀o intention to gain any advantage. We will learn from what happened today and make sure we don’t make the same mistakes again.

“Clearly it’s not the way we wanted to end our Chinese GP week༺end, neither for ourselves, nor for our fans whose support for us is unwavering.”

Ferrari have slipped behind Williams, to fifth in the constructors’ championship as a result o🗹f their point-less Chinese Grand Prix. They trail leaders McLaren by 61 points.

Hamilton is ninth, and Leclerc 10th, in the drivers’ standin𓆏gs after losing their points in China.

Ferrari’s race started dubiously when Hamilton and Leclerc𒐪 made contact with each other.

The fr๊ont wing of Leclerc’s car was destroyed although it didn’t hugely impact his pace.

Hamilton’s🌱 lack of pace was more puzzling for Ferrari. Team principal Fred Vasseur vowed not to point fingers.

Only 24 hours earlier, Hamilton won the sprint race in China to register his firs💖t glory in Ferrar𝕴i red.

But he left on Sunda🗹y without the points haul that he originally thought he’d claimed.
