From a pit lane start to being the guinea pig for slick tyres to ending up a lap down, it was a day to forget for George Russell. SingaporeGP 🇸🇬 F1
after a race where he believed Mercedes had the pace to top the order.
Asked in the media pen if the gamble on slick tyres had been worth it, Russell replied: “We were in no man’s land, to be honest, but potentially it was, because at the restart we were flying, overtook two or three people on one lap after the Safety Car. “Obviously I had the tangle with Mick. I don’t know what happened there, I felt like I left him plenty of space. We would have probably finished in the points because we were flying. Obviously got the fastest lap at the end by almost two seconds.
“Pleased the issues from yesterday in FP1 had been resolved, and I guess a bit of confidence restored that I haven’t lost it and I didn’t qualify three seconds off the pace due to a lack of talent or whatever. But such a shame, we had a car to win this week.” Not our finest weekend but the team did a mega job to resolve our Quali issues which, combined with our pace in the dry, is a big positive to take. In such a long and demanding season we were bound to have one that didn't go our way, so we chalk this one off and move on to Japan.
