McLaren have revealed that they were assured by FIA race officials during the Belgian Grand Prix that Lewis Hamilton had done enough, by allowing Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen to repass him, to prevent the British driver from being penalised for cutting a chicane earlier in the duo's epic battle. ?From the pit wall, we asked Race Control to confirm that they were comfortable that Lewis had allowed Kimi to repass, and they confirmed twice that they believed that the position had been given back in a manner that was 'okay',? explained McLaren's F1 CEO Martin Whitmarsh in a statement released on Tuesday.
