It was a day where almost everything went against George Russell. The 22-year-old Brit drove a clear race and overtook teammate Valtteri Bottas at the start. Nevertheless, Lewis Hamilton's replacement didn't end up on the podium and he let everyone know how he felt on the team radio.

Russell's worst luck today

Russell was unlucky twice. At first, he lost out with a failed pit stop that forced him to pit again to remove the wrong tyres. When he had reclaimed a number of places and wanted to launch an attack on Sergio Perez, disaster struck again.
Russell had a puncture so he lost again places and had to pit again. Ultimately, Russell has to make do with ninth place, which is his best result in Formula 1.
