George Russell's race was ended when Romain Grosjean collided with him near the end of the Singapore Grand Prix. The Williams driver feels that he had a decent opportunity to perform but this was put to an end by the Haas driver. 

“The fact my rear left touched his front right proves that it was my corner, he should have conceded the corner. I don’t know what he was thinking, but it’s not the first time something’s happened like that with Romain," Russell said after the race. 

“Ultimately his actions ended my race but they should have ended his race as well. I don’t think I’d be doing anything different. It was in his hands to realize it wasn’t malicious, just common racing sense," Russell said to Sky Sports F1. 

“It was a rubbish race from the start; I got sandwiched at the first corner with Robert and Daniel (Ricciardo), which was just one of those things. What looked like a fairly decent weekend ended up as a missed opportunity.”

Russell will hope that his luck turns around this weekend at the Russian Grand Prix in Sochi.
