‘No confusion or rules' over how Russell should race Mercedes F1 drivers - Wolff

Reflecting on the fallout of his massive race-ending collision with Valtteri Bottas at Imola, Williams driver Russell said he considers Lewis Hamilton and Bottas to be his teammates as much as Ni🐽cholas Latifi is.
Russell apologised to Bottas for his emotional remonstration towards the Finn in the direct aftermath of the incident, as well as his suggestion that Bottas wou📖ld have raced him differently had he been another driver not in contention for a Mercedes seat in 2022.
The Briton also claimed his relationship with Wolff had 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:“not been damaged at all” - butꦇ rather strengthened - following talks held between the pair.
Speaking on Friday ahead of this weekend’s Port🍸uguese Grand Prix, Wolff confirmed there is a clear understanding between the drivers foll🌜owing separate discussions.
“I think I want most of [the conversations] to stay confidential because I had discu✃ssions with both of the drivers,” Wolff said.
“Drivers have to go for a gap, and sometimes it's evaluating whether it's taking a risk or not. I guess that a young driver will always go for the possibility and nothin൲g else is expected.
“Then the question is, is there enough reaction time to take to evaluate who is the other car? I think not. So in a way, there is never 100% blame on one and zero on the other one. It's probably always much more nuanced and I🔴'm really happy about the convers♔ation we had.
“There is no confusion on any side, and there are no rules for any of th♊e drivers. It was just us 🍌giving feedback.”
While Bottas said he was yet to speak to Russell directly since their coming together, he said he considered the crash to be 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:“done and dusted” and “history”.
