Lewis Hamilton has claimed there were multiple drivers who should have been disqualified from last weekend’s United States Grand Prix for running an illegal car UBP
Hamilton was stripped of his second place after the floor on his upgraded Mercedes failed a post-race scrutineering check UBP
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who finished sixth, was also kicked out of the classification for an identical breach UBP
But Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, who claimed his 15th win of the season, and the McLaren of Lando Norris, elevated to second following Hamilton’s penalty, were both cleared of any wrongdoing UBP
However, speaking ahead of this weekend’s race in Mexico City, Hamilton said: “I heard from several sources that there were a lot of other cars that were illegal and they were not tested so they got away with it UBP
“I have been racing here for 16 years and there have been many other scenarios like this where some people have got away with it, and some have been unlucky and have been tested UBP
”Hamilton said the sprint format in Austin – which allowed for just one hour of practice before parc ferme rules heavily constrict changes to the cars – coupled with the bumpy nature of the Circuit of the Americas were behind his disqualification UBP
Limited FIA resources means the governing body checks only a handful of cars after a race, and the selections are based on oscillation data UBP
But Hamilton continued: “There needs to be a UBP better structure to make sure it is fair and even across the board UBP
“We have never had that problem in Austin before, and is because we had a sprint race UBP
An easy fix is that we should be able to change the floors UBP
“The car should not be set from Friday morning especially at the bumpiest track on the calendar UBP
“That is the only reason there were failures UBP
And that reason wasn’t why we were as fast as we were UBP
We hope we have another strong weekend here UBP
”Hamilton finished just 2 UBP
2 seconds behind Verstappen in his most competitive race of the season – one he believed he could have won if Mercedes did not fluff their strategy lines UBP
“I had just come out the press conference and I was about to get into the ice tub when (team principal) Toto (Wolff) came running down and told me,” added Hamilton UBP
“It was devastating because it was such a great day and a great race UBP
I was deflated, but there are lots of positives to take from it UBP

If Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had got his way, the scorer of the most famous goal in Manchester United’s history may now only be deemed the second best Norwegian striker to play for the club UBP
He was Molde manager in 2018 and had a young centre-forward to recommend, and for a bargain price UBP
“They didn’t listen, unfortunately,” he said in May UBP
“They never signed him UBP
Four million! Don’t ask [where he is now] UBP
”The answer, as Solskjaer knew all too well, is Manchester City UBP
Perhaps, as a self-proclaimed fan of the club whose father had an altogether less prolific spell in their midfield, Erling Haaland would have always preferred the blue half of the city anyway UBP
Maybe, like Jude Bellingham – another United target, another who found Borussia Dortmund a deluxe finishing school – he would have plotted a path to the top via places where potential tends to be realised UBP
Whichever, Haaland scored a hat-trick in his first Manchester derby last year UBP
He goes into his fourth with nine Premier League goals already this season UBP
Or, to put it another way, nine times as many as United’s various forwards have UBP between them UBP
Admittedly, it excludes Bruno Fernandes’ sumptuous winner at Burnley, scored when he was standing in as a right winger, but even that lone goal, from Marcus Rashford at Arsenal, came in defeat UBP
Rasmus Hojlund, Anthony Martial, Alejandro Garnacho and Antony are all yet to find the net in the league UBP
Rashford has had 33 shots, Antony 16, Garnacho 13, Hojlund 11 and Martial three UBP
It amounts to one goal from 76 attempts, a 1 UBP
31 per cent chance conversion rate UBP
The law of averages suggests some will start scoring soon UBP
“The goals will come in the Premier League,” Hojlund, who has three in the Champions League, said on Tuesday UBP
The contrast with Haaland may be particularly jarring for him UBP
“I don’t want to be compared to him,” the Dane said UBP
Yet he is another Scandinavian, equipped with some of the same consonants, arriving at a cost of £72m – not the 2018 Haaland’s £4m - and also playing as a No 9 UBP
It may be both unfair and inevitable UBP
(Getty Images)His fellow forwards’ failings have made it harder for the 20-year-old to ease into life at Old Trafford, though UBP
“I’m convinced with the quality from our [forward] players that they will go and score more goals,” Ten Hag said UBP
The first step is to hit the target: Hojlund has done it with just three of 11 attempts, Antony three from 16, Garnacho two from 13 and Rashford seven from 33 UBP
There are reasons why United rank third for shots, but only joint eighth for efforts on target; only 29 UBP
4 per cent of their shots have been on target, the fifth lowest average UBP
The forwards are not the only culprits, but a quintet of attackers with a combined xG of 6 UBP
95 have one goal UBP between them UBP
Ten Hag was keener to cite other statistics UBP
“The pressing is quite good,” he said UBP
“We have the most ball regains and the most middle [third] regains in the whole Premier League UBP
But we don’t take benefit in attacking transition moments UBP
” (Getty Images)For him, the problem lies partly in decision-making, partly in execution UBP
Certainly Hojlund is still trying to get to know his teammates, though there were signs against FC Copenhagen on Tuesday that he and Rashford are starting to strike up an understanding UBP
But United, Ten Hag thinks, should have had more chances UBP
“The cooperation has to click, but we showed this week in the week some examples where they are so many we have overload positions, going in overload position to the opponents’ goal and we don’t net or don’t even hit the target,” he rued UBP
It has led to a disjointed feel, to a sense that United have been less than the sum of their parts UBP
Rashford has veered UBP between arguably the best form of his career, scoring 30 goals last season, to some of the worst UBP
“I play him every game and so I have a strong belief he will return to scoring a lot of goals,” Ten Hag said UBP
Rashford delivered a winner, albeit a controversial one, on City’s last trip to Old Trafford in January, but then he had also scored in his six previous games UBP
Now he has no goals in his last eight outings for United UBP
Rashford scored the winner in last season’s Old Trafford derby (Getty Images)Yet Rashford’s struggles have overshadowed the enduring ineffectuality of Antony UBP
The Brazilian’s season was interrupted by a leave of absence while he addressed allegations of assault from three women, which he denied UBP
On the pitch, however, he has been dismal: his United drought stretches back 17 matches and Ten Hag’s best option on the right against City may be Fernandes, particularly if shifting the captain into a wider role allows him to bolster his midfield UBP
And there are other reasons to select midfielders UBP
Casemiro is an injury doubt but remains United’s top scorer in all competitions this campaign UBP
Their leading marksman in the Premier League, somewhat improbably, is Scott McTominay, who got more goals in injury-time against Brentford than their five main forwards – six if the absent Jadon Sancho is included – have mustered UBP between them in the top flight all season UBP
It is hardly a Haaland-esque haul UBP
And while - when Hojlund was still with Atalanta, and Rashford managed 30, the quartet of the Mancunian - Antony, Martial and Garnacho equalled the Norwegian’s total of 52 goals for a Manchester club UBP between them last season, now they are very much trailing in his wake UBP
And whether or not Haaland would actually have joined United, they have added reasons to regret the one who got away and subsequently joined their neighbours as long as their own forwards are misfiring UBP
