George Russell is undoubtedly one of the best racing drivers in the world, as he is incredibly fast. However, he is “not responsible,” according to his good friend Alex Albon. The Mercedes driver has now responded to this allegation in a recent interaction with the fans.
As for Russell’s most recent race in Singapore, it ended miserably as he crashed out of the race from second place. As a result, the 25-year-old scored no points and is now behind Charles Leclerc by 14 points in the championship.
George Russell responds to Alex Albon’s allegations
