Former Formula 1 race winner Juan Pablo Montoya has publicly supported the FIA's decision to penalize Lewis Hamilton following an opening-lap collision at the Belgian Grand Prix. The incident involved Hamilton and his teammate, George Russell, who had started the race from the third position at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit.
Montoya stated that the stewards were entirely justified in their ruling regarding the contact between the two Mercedes drivers. The collision occurred early in the race, shortly after Russell experienced a sudden loss of electrical power, leading to the stewards' intervention.
