Vídeo: George Russell implora pela interrupção da corrida após acidente dramático no Grande Prêmio da Austrália.

The George Russell accident on the last lap of the Australian GP will be remembered as one of the highlights of the 2024 race. While trying to catch up to the car in front of him, Russell lost control of his vehicle and collided with the barriers. He then returned to the track in a tilted position, leading him to request a red flag for safety reasons. The incident left him in a dangerous position on the track and understandably concerned about his well-being.

The fact that Russell pleaded for a red flag and the race control ignored the virtual safety car is shocking. Fortunately, no serious injuries occurred as a result of the accident. The retirement at the Australian GP was a major disappointment for the Mercedes F1 team as it resulted in a double DNF. Furthermore, Russell’s teammate also had to retire early due to an engine issue.

Although the exact cause of Russell’s accident at the Australian GP is still unknown, he took full responsibility for the incident. He acknowledged that he was at fault for the high-speed crash at Albert Park. Prior to the accident, Russell was on course to finish in a points-scoring position.

Mercedes had hoped that Russell would secure valuable points for the team after Hamilton’s retirement. However, their expectations were not met as both drivers were forced to retire from the race. This double retirement had a significant impact on the German team, causing them to drop to fifth place in the Constructors’ Championship with only 26 points.
