George Russell makes request of F1 fans after "shame" comments on Red Bull dominance

George Russell declared it is "a shame" for Formula 1 that Red Bull are so far ahead of everyone else amid complaints from fans over a lack of competition.

The 2023 title race in the constructors' championship already looks to be over after just five races. Red Bull have won everyone one of them – their other driving finishing second in four of the five – and already have a 122-point lead over their nearest 'competitor'.

Below them, things are a little tighter. Four podiums from Fernando Alonso have propelled Aston Martin into second place but their advantage over Mercedes stands at just six points. Ferrari are 18 points further back in fourth but still well in the hunt for second place.
