Russell was running in fourth place when his engine gave up as he 𝔍crossed the start-finish line, forcing him to pull over at the exit of the pit lane. 

The Briton's W14 caught&n🉐bsp;fire when the issue occured shortly after the race had re-started following a red flag stoppage𝔍.

Russell led the early stages of the race after making a brilliant start to pass Red Bull's Max Verstappen, but dropped to seventh after losing out when he pitted under an early Safety Car, just before the race was168澳洲5最新开奖结果: suspended

Further red flags delayed the conclusio💯n, until Max Verstappen finally claimed the victory until confusing circumstances.

Lewis Hamilton finished second, Fernan♈do A💝lonso third.
