George Russell led the F1 Sprint of the Singapore Grand Prix, but crashed out after exiting the final corner on Lap 1.
The British driver lost control over his car exiting the final corner at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Luckily, no one coming from behind hit him as he rolled back onto the track.
Russell took the lead from Max Verstappen at the start of the Sprint and was comfortably in front until he spun. "I'm fine, sorry, sorry," he said over the team radio.
Lewis Hamilton gained three positions after the start and he is now up to second place.
