'There should be a little bit of tension there because they are competitors.'
Mercedes don’t want “puppy dogs”, they want “lions”, and that’s what they have in Lewis Hamilton and George Russell with Bradley Lord saying tension is to be expected.
Russell had to pit for a new front wing as well as tyres as he’d suffered a puncture, that dropping him well down the order.“It’s clear that lap one, two cars coming together and one in the gravel, one in the pits, is pretty much the worst scenario that a racing team can see,” the Mercedes communications chief conceded.
“I think Lewis again, has paid tribute to the quality of his relationship with George after the race and they’ll talk about this, put it behind them, and then we’ll come back even stronger in Austin as a team.”Russell recovered from his early pitstop for a new front wing to finish in fourth place, the Briton putting in a four-stop strategy to McLaren’s three-stopper.
