Hamilton named winner of F1 Belgian GP after Russell disqualification

PARIS, July 28 (Xinhua) -- Mercedes' George Russell has been disqualified from Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix after his car was found to be underweight, handing teammate Lewis Hamilton the race win.

Russell had crossed the line first after a brilliant drive in which he endured one set of Hard tyres for 32 laps, abandoning plans for a second pit stop to hold off Hamilton and the chasing pack to take the win.
