George Russell flips car in massive crash on final lap of Australian Grand Prix


George Russell was involved in a terrifying crash on the final lap of the Australian Grand Prix, with the Mercedes ace making a critical mistake while battling Fernando Alonso. Carlos Sainz ended up taking the chequered flag in Melbourne to complete a Ferrari one-two after Max Verstappen was forced to retire early on with smoke billowing from his Red Bull car.

Just moments before the end of the race, Russell crashed out after losing the rear end while chasing Alonso in the battle for sixth place. Replays showed the Mercedes driver coming up behind his Spanish rival before spinning out and smashing into the barriers at high speed.
