Lewis Hamilton has claimed there were multiple drivers who should have been disqualified from last weekend’s United States Grand Prix for running an illegal car UBP
Hamilton was stripped of his second place after the floor on his upgraded Mercedes failed a post-race scrutineering check UBP
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who finished sixth, was also kicked out of the classification for an identical breach UBP
But Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, who claimed his 15th win of the season, and the McLaren of Lando Norris, elevated to second following Hamilton’s penalty, were both cleared of any wrongdoing UBP
However, speaking ahead of this weekend’s race in Mexico City, Hamilton said: “I heard from several sources that there were a lot of other cars that were illegal and they were not tested so they got away with it UBP
“I have been racing here for 16 years and there have been many other scenarios like this where some people have got away with it, and some have been unlucky and have been tested UBP
”Hamilton said the sprint format in Austin – which allowed for just one hour of practice before parc ferme rules heavily constrict changes to the cars – coupled with the bumpy nature of the Circuit of the Americas were behind his disqualification UBP
Limited FIA resources means the governing body checks only a handful of cars after a race, and the selections are based on oscillation data UBP
But Hamilton continued: “There needs to be a UBP better structure to make sure it is fair and even across the board UBP
“We have never had that problem in Austin before, and is because we had a sprint race UBP
An easy fix is that we should be able to change the floors UBP
“The car should not be set from Friday morning especially at the bumpiest track on the calendar UBP
“That is the only reason there were failures UBP
And that reason wasn’t why we were as fast as we were UBP
We hope we have another strong weekend here UBP
”Hamilton finished just 2 UBP
2 seconds behind Verstappen in his most competitive race of the season – one he believed he could have won if Mercedes did not fluff their strategy lines UBP
“I had just come out the press conference and I was about to get into the ice tub when (team principal) Toto (Wolff) came running down and told me,” added Hamilton UBP
“It was devastating because it was such a great day and a great race UBP
I was deflated, but there are lots of positives to take from it UBP

“I’ve done four World Cups, so I’m pretty happy with that UBP
“The kids are at that age where they need their dad around UBP
It will be good to be with them more, to provide some well needed structure to the mob UBP
“It’s a bit of an end of an era, but it’s been a real honour for me to represent England for so long UBP
I’m proud of the journey I’ve been on UBP
It’s not always been the ups UBP
Plenty of downs in there, but I’ve pushed through UBP

To be able to finish with this group is something I’ll treasure forever UBP
”Courtney Lawes will retire from England duty at the end of the tournament in France (Getty Images)A one-club man, Lawes is contracted at Northampton Saints for another season and intends to play on domestically UBP
He made his England debut in November 2009, coming on to partner now head coach Steve Borthwick in the second row in a defeat to Australia, and went on to win three Six Nations championships across his career UBP
Having played most of his career at lock, including starting the 2019 World Cup final at lock, the always-versatile Lawes has been stationed on the blindside for most of the last four years UBP

He began this World Cup as England’s skipper while Owen Farrell served his suspension, leading the side to two victories and scoring only his second Test try in the win over Japan UBP
“I have so many [great memories],” Lawes stressed UBP
“I think, as hard as it is being away from your family and stuff like that, you almost have another family UBP
You really feel like that, especially when you’re away in camps like World Cup camps UBP

I’ll definitely miss the boys, the banter and all the suff we get up to when we’re not training UBP
“From the last World Cup to this one, with the group of lads we’ve had coming through, I’ve really enjoyed being part of the group UBP
You can see what it really means for us to play for each other UBP
“When you come up against teams like South Africa, where everyone thinks you’re going to get slaughtered, and you find another level for each other UBP
So I’ll miss this group of boys specifically UBP
“We’ve had a lot of good times with these lads UBP
I’ll definitely miss pulling the jersey on and giving it everything UBP
”England will face Argentina in a battle for third place at the Stade de France on Friday night in their final match of the World Cup UBP

Steve Borthwick has hailed Courtney Lawes’s intelligence and work-rate (Getty Images)The England head coach hailed his vice-captain’s qualities nearly a decade and a half after welcoming him into the Test fold as a player UBP
Borthwick said: “We could talk about his trademark Courtney Lawes low tackles that cut the attackers down in their path, [but] what I see in Courtney is somebody who covers the ground UBP
“In crucial moments, he finds himself in the right place at the right time just so often UBP
That’s a real sign of the intelligence of the player, a sign of the understanding of the player UBP
“That’s what he continues to do UBP
[He has] more than 100 caps now, and you can see how hungry he is to help the team by the way he runs UBP
