George Russell described 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen’s driving as “win it or bin it” after their clash at the F1 Spanish Grand Pri🍒x.

The latest in a series of Verstappen v Russell skirmishes came in Barcelona on Sunday, when the Red Bull driver was penalised for contact with his 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mercedes counterpart.

Verstꦡappen, struggling on a hard tyre and asked to concede position back to Russell before “ramming him”, according to Nico Rosberg, was given a 10-seco𝓀nd time penalty.

“He’s a hard racer, it's as simple as that,” 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell told Channel 4.

“He’s a ‘win it or bin it’ kind of guy.

“In the past few y💟ears he has been out in front so we haven’t se🧔en it.

“But we’ve ജall been racing Max for a♋ long time, since 2011.

“That’s his style. I won’t say any💟thing negative about it because he’s a four-time world champion and I’m a 💜zero-time world champion so he’s obviously doing something right.

“But there are obviousl💝y a lot of young kids who look up to all of 🦋the F1 drivers.

“You see things like he did in Imola, and you’ve got to t♛ake your hat off🥃.

“Then you see things like today and it seemed unnecessary.🎃 I don’t really understand the rationale.”

George Russell asked how to defend against Max Verstappen

Verstappen previously responded to Russell’s concerns about the influence on aspiring drivers by 168澳洲幸运5😼官方开奖结果历史:sarcastically saying “I’ll bring some tissues”.

Although he initially refused to answer whether it was a deliberate move, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史𓆉:Verstappen later expressed regret.

Christian Horner revealed that Verstappen apologised to Red 𓆏Bull at their debrief.

But Russell knows there is nothing that can be dꦚone differently to combat Verstappen’s aggressive tac෴tics.

“Not really. You just continue racing as you do,”🐈 he said.

“We came home ahead of him. He probably could have fought back to the podium because 🅷Charles and I, on the soft tyre, were dropping. It would have come back to him.

“I’m just glad we had no damage and could finish the race🎶 in P4.”

Russell described the incident: “From my side, he just 𒅌crashed into me! So I was a little bit surprised.

“Turn 1 there was a bit of contaꦫct. He kept the place. Rightl🍌y so, he gave me the position back at Turn 5.

“But when he did that, he went on the throttle aܫnd crashed into the side of me.

“I don’t know what was going on. We finished P4,🔜 he got the penalty and finished P10, so I 🌳won’t lose sleep over it.”

He added: “I’ve seen ꧋those sort of moves in simulator racing before.

“I’ve never see💟n it in Formula 1. It’s down to the stewards if they think it was🌠 deliberate.”

The incident oveꦗrshad𝓡owed a solid result for Mercedes driver Russell.

Without any imminent upgradꦗes,💃 he is left hoping for favourable weather.

“Right now, all we need is a cloudy day and cold conditions,” he saidꦦ.

“The trends are clear - when it’s cool, or a nꦫight race, we are pretty good. When it’s hot and toasty the McLarens go off into the distance and we go backwards.”
