Australian GP: Trulli's third place under investigation by the stewards

Jarno Trulli could lose the third place he won in the Australian GP to Lewis Hamilton. The two drivers were summoned by the FIA ​​commissioners after an episode that occurred during the last safety car. McLaren Mercedes team principal Martin Whitmarsh confirmed that the FIA ​​is investigating Trulli's conduct after the Toyota driver overtook Hamilton under the safety car, having lost control of the car and ended up on the grass.

“There is an ongoing discussion for third place, as Trulli went out and then overtook Lewis under the safety car,” Whitmarsh told the BBC. "We'll see what happens in the next few hours."

Speaking to the BBC, Hamilton said he was “very proud” of the team's work: “We did what we could. The whole team did an incredible job all weekend. We stood together, with our heads held high and kept pushing. This result demonstrates the spirit of the team. I am very happy with these points."
