Former Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya believes Mercedes compromised George Russell's Italian Grand Prix by not double-stacking its drivers under the virtual safety car.
Mercedes secured a 1-2 finish at Monza led by home hero Kimi Antonelli, who recovered from 19th on the grid to become the first Italian winner at the circuit since 1966. But Russell controlled the early phases of the race and was positioned as the primary candidate for victory before a mid-race virtual safety car period altered his race.
