George Russell scraped through Q1 in Singapore, with the Mercedes driver finishing in just 13th place. Mercedes didn't have a great Friday yesterday, and their woes seem to be continuing on Saturday. The usually calm Brit was clearly angry on his radio, as he told his race engineer Marcus Dudley that he wasn't comfortable in his car.

Russell: 'No **** Grip!'

"I've got No **** grip, mate! It's totally different to FP3, totally different. These tyres are so different." Russell said. Mercedes will be relieved Russell made his way through the first qualifying segment in Singapore. He wasn't the only driver to struggle in the session, as Max Verstappen and Carlos Sainz had some eye-catching slides.
