Armed with fresh tyres, Russell was chasing down second-placed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris and leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz in the closing stages of a pulsating race in Singapore when his pur🌄suit of victory🍒 ended in the barriers.

The heartbreaking crash on the final lap left a visibly-emotional Russell feeling as though he had “let myself an𓆏d the team down”.&n🅺bsp;

But seven-time world champion Hamilton, who ultima🅺tely inherited the final spot on the podium, was full of praise for Russell and offered to help the younger Briton get even better. 

"We are all trying to be millimetre perfect out there and it's very, very easy to make mistakes. It's easy for any of us, being in the position George wa🙈s in,” Hamilton said. 

"He had been driving phenomenal all weekend, ෴so it was really unfortunate for him, last lap, to finish that way. But he continues to grow and improve.

"I know that he wi🅠ll keep getting stronger and faster… If there is any way I can help him be a 💦part of that over the next couple of years.

"I have a lot of experience, I'🗹ve been here a long time, putting together a race is, not that it's easy, but the race is where I'm most comfortable on track. It's just about keeping your head down.

"If you look a🐲t last year I made a mistake at Turn Seven and went off and crashed in the wall. It can happen to any of us. It's just one of t🌜hose things.”

Hamilton’s 196th F1 podium has moved him ahead of Aston Martin’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso and up to third place in♈ t🐭he drivers’ championship. 

Meanwhile, Russell is seventh in the standings, 71 points behind his more experience𒀰d teammate.
