Lewis Hamilton to get monumental F1 title boost as FIA 'set to take immediate action' against Mercedes

The FIA is reportedly set to take action against Mercedes' controversial diffuser, potentially as early as the 2026 Austrian Grand Prix. Lewis Hamilton, who sits second in the championship 41 points behind leader Kimi Antonelli, recently ended a 686-day win drought with a victory at the Barcelona Grand Prix driving for Ferrari. A ban on the Mercedes diffuser, introduced at the Canadian GP as part of a major upgrades package, could significantly impact the championship standings in Hamilton's favour.
