George Russell has willingly taken an FIA penalty at the Monaco Grand Prix after an incident with Alex Albon.

The Mercedes star will have to drive through the pits without stopping, a major blow to Russell who has not taken his two mandatory pit stops yet, and could be disqualified if he does not serve them.

Russell’s frustration was understandable, with the Mercedes demonstrating very little pace to fight through the field and back into the top 10.
