Should Russell fear? Investigation into Mercedes driver after hindering Leclerc
- Toby McLuskie
Race officials have launched an investigation into George Russell. The Mercedes driver allegedly obstructed Charles Leclerc in the first part of the sprint shootout. Incidentally, the incident did not have major consequences as both men were comfortably heading for SQ2. Nevertheless, the incident is going to be looked at again after the session. A three-place grid penalty is not out of the question in this regard.
