Brawn: Bottas left Russell anowhere to goA in Imola crash
by Fergal Walsha 1 hour agoa 0
Formula 1 Managing Director Ross Brawn believes Valtteri Bottas left
George Russell onowhere to goo before their clash at Imola on Sunday.
Both drivers were eliminated from the race in the violent impact at Turn
2, with both men blaming each other for the collision.
Russell was attempting to overtake Bottas for ninth place on the road,
but claims the Finnish driver changed his position on the run into the corner, which ultimately resulted in Russell losing control after he
touched the grass.
Bottas affirmed that he always left enough space for a car on the
outside line.
A stewardsA investigation followed, but no punishment was handed out as
they deemed the crash a racing incident.
Writing in post-race column, Brawn indicated that Bottas was more to
blame for the accident as he left Russell with little room at the high
speed section of the track.
oThere will no doubt be an intense post-mortem of the accident between Valtteri Bottas and George Russell,o Brawn said.
oThe positive thing is that both drivers escaped unhurt and the cars
held up on impact to show how far weAve come regarding the safety
standards.
oImola is quite a narrow track so thereAs not much space. When you add
wet grass either side from the rain, it becomes very, very tricky.
oIAm sure both drivers will analyse the incident and learn from it but
it did look like Valtteri drifted across and left George nowhere to go.o
Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff refused to pin blame on a single driver,
but stated that Russell, who is managed by Mercedes, has olots to learno.
