Hamilton, who initially finished second behind Max Verstappen, was removed from the results, alongside Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.
Both cars underwent random checks after the race and were found to have violated the rules regarding the thickness of the car’s skid block.
The FIA stewards confirmed the disqualification, stating that the skid block wear exceeded permissible limits, emphasizing the responsibility of competitors to ensure their cars’ compliance with regulations at all times during an event.
The 38 year-old expressed his disappointment earlier, believing he could have won the US Grand Prix if not for strategic issues.
He finished just under two seconds behind Verstappen and was confident that on another day, he could have secured victory.

This disqualification marks a significant setback for Hamilton and his team, altering the race’s outcome and Championship standings.
