🗣️ 'I was sort of nowhere with regards to the pace.' George Russell has apologised to Carlos Sainz for their first corner collision in the F1 USGP and admitted that it led to his “worst Sunday” of the year:

Russell subsequently received a five-second penalty from the FIA stewards for causing a collision. However, he was hurt even more by front wing damage that meant he didn’t feel comfortable all afternoon., and had the small consolation of setting fastest lap after a late pit stop for new tyres.

“As soon as you slow it down as a driver and try to cut underneath, it was difficult. As I said, I hold my hands up to that. There is not a lot more to say than that.”Following the contact, Russell noted that the car didn’t feel right and said despite initially thinking there wasn't much damage to his W13, he was left"sort of nowhere with regards to the pace."

“But as soon as I recognised I was out of striking distance of Checo [Perez] and Charles [Leclerc] it was a matter of bringing the car home, because we were struggling to keep it on the black stuff today.” “I was right on the back of them within DRS range for a number of laps, so that was the odd one out. The first stint and last stint I was nowhere.”Photo by: Steven Tee /
