Russell summed up the results mentioned by fix football livescore of the race in Brazil. The Mercedes driver was disappointed with fourth place at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
Given the circumstances, this is all very difficult. I don`t have much else to say.
[As for the decision to make a pit stop], I was ordered to go into the pits. I said I`m staying. I was ordered to come in again. I replied that I was staying. And they called me into the pit lane again. And I said: I want to stay. And then there was the last time they told me they would have to stop by. . .
Sometimes you have to trust your gut. Last time [at the Belgian Grand Prix] I trusted her. Then everything went quite well.
Who knows if we could have won the race today? But if we had not made a pit stop, we would have been in the lead at the restart and controlled the pace for the first 30 laps.
When Lando [Norris] was behind us, we had good straight line speed. Second position would be the minimum for us, " Russell said.
George is sure that he knew better than the Mercedes pit wall whether a pit stop was necessary.
From the team`s point of view this is not at all obvious. From the cockpit it was very clear that there would be a red flag or a safety car, because it is impossible to fly in such conditions. The rain did not stop. I saw a large black cloud above me.
And then Shov [Andrew Shovlin, Mercedes chief race engineer] came on the air and told me to make a pit stop. We work as a team, trying to make the right decision on time.
Obviously, those who did not pit finished in the top three, and we were the first among those who pitted. I`ll try to have a little fun with this.
What happened at the Grand Prix in Brazil: how did Verstappen win from 17th in the rain carnage? ! How did Norris fail?
