19 April, 2021 One could hazard a guess that George Russell is in for a scolding from Mercedes team boss and mentor Toto Wolff after the Williams driver crashed into Valtteri Bottas during a chaotic 2021 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix. The pair collided at high speed when Bottas stuck to the dryline as they hurtled into the Variante Tamburello, for the 32nd time, Russell with DRS wide open opted to go the long route, to the outside but his right-rear struck a wet patch, clipped the grass and the Williams whiplashed violently into the Mercedes beside it. The cars shredded apart as they made contact at high speed, in a blink of an eye both lay broken and beached; race stoppage required to clear the mess. Russell alighted his wreck, charged at the stricken Mercedes to give Bottas a piece of his mind as well as a smack to the helmet.
