George Russell and Lando Norris had the greatest fun during the virtual Grand Prix of Azerbaijan on Sunday evening. Russell took the lead and then he made a lot of remarks that belong to a frontrunner.

At the end of the race Norris was asked why Russell could be heard with so much nagging about the onboard radio. Russell easily took the lead in the streets of Baku, but could still be heard most of the time in his stream. ''He learned that from Lewis'', Norris joked about that during the broadcast.

Hamilton 'stands for crazy'

In recent years it has been quite common for Lewis Hamilton to worry about anything and everything during the race. The tyres don't last until the end of the race or he feels a certain vibration. However, nine times out of ten he drives happily to victory and it turned out that there is nothing wrong.

When Russell is asked about his complaints, he deals with Norris's joke in a playful way. ''I thought that's what you should do if you win. I think you have to pretend your tyres are going, so you'll be the hero at the end of the race'', said a smiling Russell hinting at his colleague at Mercedes.
