Russell has a knack for getting into sticky situations, then pointing fingers later. But that crash? Looked peculiar on the replays.

Seemed like he had the speed to pass Alonso, but got caught off guard by Alonso’s slowing Aston. Let’s wait and see what the stewards make of it.

Edit: Alonso received a penalty. The explanation is intriguing: Russell, closely trailing him, anticipated Alonso to maintain his recent driving style. However, Alonso opted to slow down in the corner to accelerate afterward, catching Russell off guard. While Russell may have exaggerated, with him tailing Alonso so closely, the move was unexpected and perilous, leaving Russell insufficient time to adjust.
