Russell disqualified, Mercedes win again + McLaren in the mix - 2024 Belgian GP Review

Tom Clarkson, Aston Martin Reserve Driver Stoffel Vandoorne and 9-time Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen analyse George Russell's disqualification from the 2024 Belgian Grand Prix, and discuss why it was still an impressive race weekend for Mercedes - with Russell's strategy and Hamilton's overtaking taking the Silver Arrows to the front of the field for the third time in four races.

McLaren's Oscar Piastri thinks Belgium was one of his best weekends in F1 to date, but he narrowly missed out on challenging Mercedes for the lead. Teammate Lando Norris was frustrated after a scrappy opening lap. As well as McLaren, the F1 Nation team talk about Max Verstappen's supreme speed at Spa, and ask if Sergio Perez has reached the end of the road with Red Bull Racing.

Plus, why were Ferrari so quick in qualifying but slower in the race? What made it a difficult weekend for Aston Martin? What does Esteban Ocon's overtaking tell us about Alpine's car, and what does the future hold for the team now Team Principal Bruno Famin is on his way out?
