George Russell will start Sunday's F1 United States Grand Pr🌠ix from the pitlane.

The Mercedes driveꦰr was due to start from sixth on the grid.

His crash in Saturday's qualifying means ꦗhe has wrecked the upgradℱed parts on his Mercedes, and must use the old specification in the grand prix.

Mercedes fiꦕxed his car overnight which contravenes F1 rules and results in a pitlane staꩵrt.

Mercedes brought an upgraded floor to Texas for the United States GP but don't have spare parts, so cannot👍 replace the damage done by Russel𒅌l's crash on Saturday.

Russell will revert to the spec of the W15 used in Singapore and befor𒀰e, for Sunday's race.

Teammate Lewis Hamilton endured a terrible qualifying sess🃏ion and was due to start from 18th, although will now be 17th due to Russell's pitlane star♉t.

Hamilton offered to swap his upgraded parts to help🐠 Russell, who has a much better starting position. But Mercedes have opted against that.

ꦰRB's Liam Lawson will be at the back of the grid due to an engine penalty.

Notably, the beneficiaries of Russell's pitlane start will🦋 be Pierre Gasly (who will move from seventh to sixth) and Fernando Alonso (up to seventh).
