George Russell is one of three drivers facing a nervous wait for confirmation of their Brazilian GP grid spot pending impeding investigations.
The United States and Mexican GPs had seen instances of drivers coming to a stop in the fast lane of the pit lane in order to create a gap to cars on track without busting the maximum permitted out-lap time, though impeding cars behind in the process. The FIA looked to stamp this out for the visit to Interlagos, F1 race director Niels Wittich stating in his event notes that any driver stopping in the fast lane would be flagged up for driving “unnecessarily slow”. This though has not eliminated the problem.Mercedes driver Russell, as well as Alpine drivers Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly, all will face the stewards over alleged instances of impeding at the pit exit.
