Lewis Hamilton Onboard Footage Emerges as FIA Make Singapore GP Penalty Decision

Footage of Hamilton's final laps - which was not broadcast on live TV - has emerged.

Footage of Lewis Hamilton's final laps of the Singapore Grand Prix has emerged after the Ferrari driver was given a penalty for track limits violations.

Hamilton was in sixth place heading into the final three laps at the Marina Bay Street Circuit when he suffered a front left brake failure.

The seven-time champion had to coast around the circuit for the rest of the Grand Prix, dropping a position to team-mate Charles Leclerc.

He lost 45 seconds to Fernando Alonso in eighth, finishing just 0.4 seconds ahead of the Aston Martin driver.

Hamilton was subsequently placed under investigation by the FIA for 'leaving the track without a justifiable reason'.

The 40-year-old argued over team radio that he should not receive a penalty due to force majeure - an unforeseen event that was outside of his control.

Live TV directors chose not to show his onboard during those final laps, instead prioritising McLaren's Constructors' Championship celebrations.

But footage has now emerged online of exactly what Hamilton is under investigation for.

His onboard, appearing to be from the penultimate lap, shows that he cut the track at turns 2, 16 and 17, with the Ferrari driver rejoining the circuit using FIA-mandated guidelines at turn 2.

Alonso was left furious over his team radio at Hamilton, and the FIA have now determined that Hamilton will incur a five-second penalty.

As a result, he drops to eighth place in the race classification and loses two points in the Drivers' Championship standings.

An FIA statement reads: "During the hearing, the driver confirmed that he left the track at several occasions. He was trying to manage a brakes issue situation.

"This being said, after further investigation, and in accordance with the list of exemptions foreseen in the Driving Standards Guidelines, the Stewards considered that this was not a justifiable reason and apply the usual penalty for such type of infringement.
