Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton inched closer to championship leader Sebastian Vettel in the driver’s championship, with a dominant victory in the iconic Spa Francorchamps circuit. Vettel himself finished 2nd while Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo took P3. It was a fairly eventful race in certain parts, while other events were not as exciting. Social media went into overdrive following the victory by Hamilton.

These F1 grid penalties are ridiculous. Penalizing teams already struggling does not make sense to me. What's the fix? #BelgianGP
