(Reuters) – Six-times Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton was under a stewards’ investigation before the start of the Russian Grand Prix on Sunday for making a practice start outside the designated area.
The Mercedes driver qualified on pole position and is chasing his 91st career win, to equal the all-time record of Ferrari great Michael Schumacher.
Hamilton is leading team mate Valtteri Bottas in the championship by 55 points after nine races.
