George Russell gets past Max Verstappen to grab pole in Sunday's Brazilian Grand Prix.SAO PAULO - A delighted George Russell won Saturday’s breathless sprint race at the Brazilian Grand Prix to register his first Formula One race win and set up a thrilling Mercedes v Red Bull showdown in Sunday’s full-distance contest.
As Sainz is set to take a five-place grid penalty for taking a new engine, Mercedes will lock out the front row of the grid on Sunday – if an investigation into a possible starting procedure infringement by Hamilton is not penalised. “It’s crazy to think we are both starting from the front row. Lewis did a great job after starting P8, but I’m sure Max is going to be flying tomorrow, but we are in a luxurious position and maybe we can split our strategy to go for a win.”
The Dutchman, however, was not convinced that he can find the pace to overhaul the revived ‘silver arrows’ and claim a record-increasing 15th win of the season.
