George Russell: Max Verstappen Spanish Grand Prix incident has no place in F1
Mercedes F1 star George Russell suggested that Max Verstappen’s sim racing habits caused their collision at the Spanish Grand Prix. Verstappen allegedly drove into Russell after being told by Red Bull to give the place back. The shocking incident ended the race dramatically, which had been lackluster until then. Russell condemned the move as unsuitable for Formula 1, stating it felt deliberate. While former champion Nico Rosberg called for Verstappen’s disqualification, Russell chose not to comment, focusing on his team’s performance issues instead. He emphasized the need for stewards to assess whether the action was deliberate and expressed disappointment in such behavior from a talented driver like Verstappen.
