“When I heard there were 20 red flags in the F3 test [in August], I was surprised,” began George Russell, as the Mercedes driver gave his verdict on the new ‘Madring’ circuit hosting the Spanish Grand Prix for the first time this weekend. “But when I tried out the simulator and saw where the red flags were on the track, I was surprised that there were only 20 red flags.”
“It’s a crazy circuit: the most risky on the whole calendar.”
