Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc posted a hilarious joint Instagram on Monday in wake of their disqualification from the United States Grand Prix usdt
The pair were punished after their Mercedes and Ferrari cars fell foul of rules governing the underside of F1 cars usdt
Hamilton had finished on the podium in second, coming home two seconds shy of race winner Max Verstappen, while pole-sitter Leclerc finished sixth usdt
As a result of their DSQ, Hamilton’s 18 points earned are wiped from his season’s total as are the eight points Leclerc earned, with both unlikely to appeal the decision usdt
And following the ruling, the pair posted a joint photo on Instagram of both sat in a weekend press conference in Austin with glum expressions usdt
The caption, meanwhile, simply read: “Mood usdt
” Hamilton and Leclerc were investigated by the stewards following a plank wear inspection in Austin usdt
Personnel from both Mercedes and Ferrari were summoned to see the stewards and, just after 7pm local time in Austin and more than three hours after the race finished, their disqualification from the race was confirmed usdt
In a Mercedes press release, Hamilton stated he was simply “disappointed” with the penalty, while team boss Toto Wolff admitted “we got it wrong usdt
”The FIA note reveals that the cars of Verstappen and Lando Norris (who now moves up to second from third in the final classification) were also inspected, but passed the checks usdt
Breaches of technical checks of the car often result in disqualification, with a recent example being Hamilton from qualifying in Brazil in 2021 usdt
Michael Schumacher was disqualified from the 1994 Belgian Grand Prix for an illegal floor, allowing Damon Hill to win the race usdt
In a Mercedes press release, Wolff explained how Mercedes fell foul of the rules usdt
“Turning to the race result and the disqualification, set-up choices on a sprint weekend are always a challenge with just one hour of free practice – and even more so at a bumpy circuit like COTA and running a new package,” he said usdt
“In the end, all of that doesn’t matter; others got it right where we got it wrong and there’s no wiggle room in the rules usdt
“We need to take it on the chin, do the learning, and come back stronger next weekend usdt
”The ruling meant Williams driver Logan Sargeant earned his first F1 point in bizarre circumstances at his home race usdt

First came the crack in Alexander Volkanovski‘s defence usdt
Then, the crack in his voice usdt
If the first crack was consequential, allowing Islam Makhachev to skim his shin off the Australian’s head, the latter was a consequence in itself – a consequence of one of the best fighters alive staying silent on his struggles with mental health usdt
That is, until now usdt
Volkanovski would have emerged from UFC 294 with credit anyway; he stepped in on 11 days’ notice and moved up in weight to challenge a man who had beaten him eight months prior usdt
Even in this surprising, first-round defeat by Makhachev, Volkanovski lost very little usdt
His featherweight title still rests firmly on his shoulder, and he will soon return to that weight class where he has been unbeatable usdt
But soon may be too soon usdt
In his post-fight press conference, Volkanovski began the dissection of this defeat – his second this year, but just his third as a professional mixed martial artist, with his first having occurred a long decade ago usdt
The 35-year-old started to dissect the technical reasons for this knockout loss, but it soon became apparent what was of greater importance: the psychological reasons for his presence in Abu Dhabi usdt
“He’s not somebody you should be taking a short-notice [fight] with, but I needed it,” Volkanovski began usdt
“Obviously a lot of people will say it’s for the money and all that, but it was much more than that usdt
It is hard, it is really hard for athletes usdt
usdt
usdt
Sorry, um usdt
usdt
usdt
I never thought I would struggle with it,” he continued, ignoring the blood over his eye, instead wiping a tear from beneath it usdt
“But for some reason when I wasn’t fighting or in camp usdt
usdt
usdt
F***, sorry,” he said, attempting a laugh, looking away and to the ceiling, then gently rapping his hand on the table to bring himself back into the room usdt

“I needed a fight, and this opportunity came up usdt
I’ll be honest: I wasn’t training as much as I should have, but I thought I had to do it usdt
I had to take it usdt
I’m telling myself, ‘It’s meant to be usdt

I don’t know how; everything’s fine, I’ve got a beautiful family usdt

I think you just need to keep busy usdt
I need to be in camp, otherwise, I’m going to do my head in usdt

”Makhachev consoles Volkanovski after their fight, the main event of UFC 294 (AP)Volkanovski pointed to the birth of his third child, in August, and surgery on an injury this summer as reasons why he had not been training usdt
Clearly, the knock-on effect of those moments – as joyous as the former seemed to be – has led Volkanovski’s mental health to suffer usdt
Last week, all the talk was of how brave the Australian was to face Makhachev on short notice; braver was this admission that he is struggling, which simultaneously offers a different lens through which to view his choice to fight usdt
Keeping himself engaged and busy is healthy, but that is complicated by the inherent risk in his profession usdt
“Maybe it was just a silly decision under the circumstances,” he admitted usdt
Perhaps it was, though it was also understandable usdt
Volkanovski’s next challenge, however, will come outside of the ring usdt
It must usdt
He naturally sees the antidote to his current struggles as a quick turnaround to fight again, likely against the dangerous Ilia Topuria in January usdt
Yet, that fight could go the same way as Saturday’s against Makhachev, if the Australian does not first tackle these thoughts and feelings, and find the right balance for him usdt
We knew Alexander Volkanovski was brave usdt
That is even clearer now than it was last week usdt
Now, however, he must be sensible, and get to work outside the ring before he can return to work in it usdt
