George Russell in foul-mouthed F1 radio blast at rival over Spanish GP near miss

George Russell demanded to know who had blocked him during practice in Barcelona after the Brit bailed out into a gravel trap in order to avoid a crash.

It happened during the second session of Friday with teams using the opportunity to gather vital data on the new track layout at the Circuit de Catalunya. The slow-speed final chicane has been removed meaning a much faster lap for everyone and a new experience for all the drivers to get used to.

But it was earlier in the lap at Turn 10 where Russell's incident took place. He was on a flying lap when he came across a slow-moving McLaren in front of him, which proved to be a roadblock.
