# Motorsport: Formula One stewards rejected a request by Mercedes to review a decision not to penalise Red Bull’s championship leader Max Verstappen for an incident with Lewis Hamilton at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix. In a statement ahead of the Qatar Grand Prix this weekend, the stewards said while Mercedes had presented new and relevant video evidence from Interlagos, it was not significant. They maintain the footage merely showed the incident from another camera angle. Seven times world champion Hamilton won the race at Interlagos last Sunday to cut Verstappen’s overall lead to 14 points, with three races remaining.
