George Russell made it clear that Oscar Piastri deserved to finish on the podium at the BritishGP - not his teammate, Lewis Hamilton. F1
Piastri was on course for his maiden F1 podium finish at Silverstone until a mid-race Safety Car was deployed.
This allowed Hamilton, who had yet to pit, to stop under the Safety Car and lose less time through the pit lane.Video of How the fight for 2nd in the F1 Constructors Championship is heating up Hamilton rejoined ahead of Piastri, with the pair remaining third and fourth until the end of the race. Speaking to Sky after the race, Russell said: “The McLarens were impressive, they drove a great race.
“I feel bad for Oscar. He was driving really well, I’ve been super impressed by what he has achieved this year. He was the deserving podium finisher.”“Unfortunately the Safety Car timing hindered him, and hindered myself,” he added. “It was a relatively good weekend for us. Our pace compared to Ferrari, Aston and Red Bull was probably better than what we thought. But the McLarens came from nowhere.
