Russell: Low Grip Tracks Favor Antonelli

George Russell believes Kimi Antonelli's superior performance at F1 Miami GP is due to the track's low grip conditions, with Antonelli securing pole position while Russell could only manage fifth.

George Russell has explained that his Mercedes teammate Kimi Antonelli has a competitive advantage at this weekend's Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix due to the track being very low on grip. Antonelli claimed his third consecutive pole position, qualifying four tenths ahead of Russell.

The Briton admitted he has been second best to his stablemate throughout the weekend, only managing fifth place on the grid after initially being second in sprint qualifying. michezonews.co.za
