It's the Monaco Grand Prix this weekend - and an opportunity for George Russell to defy his own bleak prediction.
After the race at Emilia Romagna was wiped out, quite literally, by inclement weather last weekend, teams and drivers got back up and running at one of F1's most famous venues on Friday. And there was renewed hope for Russell and Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, amid radical new upgrades on the W14 cars.
Indeed, Hamilton was third in FP1 and sixth second time around, and afterwards spoke favourably about his revamped vehicle. Russell struggled however, labouring in 15th and then 12th as Max Verstappen ominously set the pace in the latter session.
