George Russell has revealed Mercedes' planks had looked 'absolutely fine' after the Austin weekend's only practice hour.
Accepting Mercedes got it “very wrong” in Austin when Lewis Hamilton was disqualified after failing a post-race inspection, George Russell has revealed Mercedes’ planks looked “absolutely fine” after the weekend’s only practice hour.
Russell admits Mercedes were led astray by the lack of wear on the plank after Friday’s first and only practice session on what was a Sprint weekend. “I think it’s a very different layout here. I expect the nature of this circuit to be naturally more conservative and with the three practice sessions, I don’t foresee any issues there.”Despite the team losing a podium finish, Mercedes were nonetheless happy with the performance gains from their new floor that they debuted in Austin.
