Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc and Pierre Gasly have all been disqualified from the Chinese Grand Prix.

The race took place on Sunday morning (GMT) and saw McLaren storm to victory taking the top two spots on the podium.

Oscar Piastri took first place while teammate Lando Norris came in second.

Charles Leclerc finished 5th with his new teammate Lewis Hamilton behind in 6th.

However, it has now been confirmed that both Ferraris and Pierre Gasly of Alpine have been disqualified.

Gasly and Leclerc’s cars were found to be underweight, while Hamilton’s car was deemed to have excessive skid wear.

The skid block was supposed to be 9mm when measured, however, was worn down to 8.6mm.

The three disqualifications mean Lance Stroll and Carlos Sainz enter the points.
