168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell has revealed he’s been forced to run a floor that was last raced in Miami b✱ack following his run of “pretty unnecessary” crashes.

Russell ꦆhas crashed heavily twice in two races, leaving him without Mercedes’ new upgrade.

Due to a shortage of parts, the British driver is running a ‘Miami-spec’ version of the floo🦂r.

Even so, he still managed to comfortably out-qualify Mercedes teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton, who is running the new upgrade.

The seven-time world champion was puzzled by the lack of pace from the new package, stating: “It will be interestiꦐng to get a reading because I’m obviously on the upgraded car, which should be quicker. But I don’t think it is.”

Speaking after qualifying in Mexico, where 🧔are present in the paddock, Russell admitted P5 was th꧙e best he could have done given he’s running older parts on his car.

“Yeah, FP1, we𓄧're still trying to wrap our heads around why that was so good,” he sai📖d.

“Today was a really, really good day, you know, to attempt from P3 on a floor that we raced in Miami, I don't know,ꦿ 14 races ago n🌃ow. I don't think we could have done much more.”

Russell lost control of his Mercedes at Turn 8 in second practice, resulting 🐽in a lengthy delay to the session.

The two-time F1 grand prix winner was adamant that his recent run ꦛof crashes aren’t a result of “over-driving” but the fact that “the car bites”.

Reflecting on his crash on Friday, he explained: “Well, we know exactly what happened. I mean, you look at the Red Bulls, they just run over that ke🦩rb like no problem.

“The last two years, I've been using that kerb every lap. In FP1, I did four 🦩laps using the✤ kerb and there was no problem. And then suddenly, well, you saw the replay, I hit it and it was like I was a kangaroo.

“And, you know, that was really disappointing. The last two weeks, I've put so much pressure on the tea💃m now with lack of spares. And it's🥂 been pretty unnecessary, but we don't really know why it's happening. It's not through sort of over-driving, it's just the car bites.”
