Lewis Hamilton wins by DSQ and Numerology - 2024 Belgian GP Review

Driver 44, Lewis Hamilton, won the 44-lap long 2024 Belgian Grand Prix after the FIA issued document number 44, that disqualified the original race winner and Hamilton's George Russell from the race. Yes, numerology was at play, if you believe in it that is, at this weekend's race around the legendary Spa Francorchamps. Btw, Oscar Piastri's slow pit stop was 4.4 seconds long!  Lewis Hamilton became only the second driver to score multiple race wins in the 2024 Formula 1 season. Hamilton's victory at Spa came 11 years to the day when he scored his first race win with Mercedes! Was Mercedes expected to be in the race fight whatsoever? The pre-race chatter was about McLaren vs. Red Bull Racing and how Ferrari-Mercedes would play second fiddle. But the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix had other plans. In fact, it showed what a Formula 1 race should be like - multiple teams fighting for the win with no predictability on who could actually win!
