Hamilton escapes penalty, Mercedes fined

Lewis Hamilton avoided a reprimand for an unsafe release during FP3 in Germany with Mercedes hit with a monetary fine. Heading out of his Mercedes garage during final practice, Hamilton was released into the path of Romain Grosjean. The Haas driver reacted quickly, braking to avoid a collision. Hamilton was called before the stewards but managed to avoid a reprimand, which would have been his third and would have resulted in a 10-place grid penalty. 'The team admitted that they released car 44 from the garage when it was unsafe to do so,' the stewards noted. Mercedes were hit with a 10,000 Euro fine.
