Hamilton leads tributes to Hubert from motor racing world

The Formula One and motorsport community has paid tribute to Anthoine Hubert and expressed sadness at the news of his death during Saturday's Formula 2 feature race in Belgium.

Hubert, 22, died from injuries sustained in an accident on the second lap of the race after losing control of his car at the high-speed Raidillon corner. His BWT Arden car hit the barrier before bouncing back into the path of Juan Manuel Correa's car, resulting in a second high-speed impact.

It has been confirmed that the F2 sprint race due to take place on Sunday has been cancelled.
