MAIL ONLINE - Lewis Hamilton has been stripped of pole position for Spanish Grand Prix and demoted to the back of the grid – after effectively running out of fuel during qualifying.
The British driver had completed his triumphant lap and was midway through a ‘slow-down’ lap when his McLaren team ordered him to stop because of a ‘technical problem’.
The car was found to have just 1.3 litres of petrol after it was hoisted back to the pits – insufficient for it to have completed the lap and then to have provided a mandatory one-litre fuel sample.
