With a queen of hearts
How Russell digests his disqualification
There are two thoroughly adorable backs on offer to us on Instagram. It's the rear view of Mercedes driver George Russell and his girlfriend Carmen. He is on vacation and recovering from his disqualification in Spa.
Tangoing, lazing around, unwinding, all in a picturesque setting: Yes, Russell and his lady love seem to be enjoying a real dream vacation at the moment. At least that's what the relevant Insta shots suggest.
"Breaks my heart"
The summer break will do Russell good. After his victory in Belgium was disallowed, he was almost inconsolable. "It breaks my heart to have been disqualified from today's race. It was an incredible Grand Prix," said the Briton, who was able to feel like a three-time Grand Prix winner for at least around two hours after a courageous one-stop strategy. He was then disqualified because his car was underweight, while team-mate Lewis Hamilton celebrated his 105th victory.
After refueling at the final scrutineering, Russell's "Silver Arrow" with the number 63 weighed one and a half kilograms too little. At Mercedes, they want to evaluate what happened "and understand what went wrong", as team boss Toto Wolff meekly announced.
But now, at least for Russell, it's time for a vacation.
