F1 LIVE: McLaren rub salt in Lewis Hamilton's wounds as Red Bull prepare to wield axe


Max Verstappen extended his Grand Prix win streak to three on Sunday, coming out on top at Circuit of the Americas. Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz were credited with the next two podium spots after Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified by the FIA following post-race inspections on their cars.

Hamilton was not far behind Verstappen when they took the chequered flag in Austin, but the skid on the bottom of his Mercedes had worn away to the extent that it no longer complied with F1 regulations.

The same fate met Leclerc, who had his P6 finish rescinded in the aftermath of the race. There is little time for the duo to dwell on their misfortune, however, as the Mexican Grand Prix is just around the corner, serving as the next instalment in a gripping triple-header.
