Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso hit with penalties

British driver Lewis Hamilton was clocked going at 80.2kph through the pitlane during practice runs for the Austrian GP and will be fined $109. This may seem like chump change for a millionaire F1 champion and that's because it is, although it does fairly reflect how little Hamilton infringed on the limit. The speed limit was 80kph, meaning Hamilton only went 0.2kph above it – for context a sloth is capable of moving at 1.6 kilometres per hour. Mercedes was not the only team caught on the bad side of the FIA, with Fernando Alonso being handed a fine for going 0.8kph above the limit. Want to work in Formula 1?
