Russell’s Podium Masks Antonelli’s Speed | F1 News
Description
George Russell took second at home in the British GP, but his podium felt more like a lucky escape as teammate Kimi Antonelli lapped faster—until a wild mechanical failure derailed him. Former racer David Coulthard says Russell knows he dodged a bullet, and Russell himself admits he’s unsatisfied, warning he won’t chase a title if his pace doesn’t improve. Antonelli’s crash—caused by a detached wheel shield—was dramatic, yet he still finished 15th after a penalty. With Antonelli clearly outpacing him, the pressure’s on Mercedes and Russell to close the gap before the season’s halfway point.
