George Russell following comments made after the Sprint at Imola.The British driver criticised the proceedings in Saturday's event as 'processional', despite being heralded for its entertainment by many as Max Verstappen overtook Charles Leclerc late on - providing the platform for his race victory on Sunday.Mercedes continued to struggle across the weekend, however, with both Russell and Lewis Hamilton starting outside the top 10 on the grid, though the former charged his way through the pack to secure an excellent fourth-place finish.Had Mercedes started higher on the grid, that performance could have been even better and Russell stated after the Sprint that the event was not long enough and suggested an extension to the distance following 'processional' proceedings.Those comments were quickly batted away by F1 director Brawn though, who stated Russell's comments were 'not really what we listen to' and instead indicated that the views of drivers higher up the grid would see their thoughts carry more weight.Naturally, that caused quite a stir and Brawn has now moved to clarify his remarks, pointing out the fact that drivers often complain when things don't quite go in their favour and made it clear the views of all drivers would be considered."I just know from my own experience that psychologically, a driver at the back of the grid has got all sorts of other things going on.HAVE YOUR SAY! Was the Sprint race at Imola better than standard qualifying? Comment below."It would be great if there were things going on at the back but we had a Mercedes that couldn't overtake the cars in front, but there was plenty of overtaking going on in the middle and up the front. Of course, we will listen.

George Russell has explained the car's struggles so far this season and believes his fourth-placed finish at Imola was 'fortunate'.The ex-Williams ace has finished in the top five in each of his four races for Mercedes so far this season, rising from 12th on the grid at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix to maintain that record and ease frustrations after a difficult weekend.Friday's qualifying session saw Mercedes fail to reach the final round for the first time in a decade, while Russell and teammate Lewis Hamilton were unable to improve on their starting positions for the race in Saturday's Sprint.Russell did at least have reasons to be cheerful when the chequered flag was raised at Imola though following his triumphant charge through the grid, with Hamilton finishing outside the points and Toto Wolff admitting the car was 'undriveable'.Mercedes' 'porpoising' issues have been well documented this season, with the team unable to retain pace like the Ferrari's have despite their own issues with bouncing, but Russell explained that it's not the only problem they need to overcome."I’m relatively pleased to maximise the points available this weekend. Whether we’re getting the most out of the car is a different story and I do think things have fallen slightly in our favour with these first four races.

Lewis Hamilton.The Brit finished outside the points for the first time this season and suffered the humiliation of being lapped by Max Verstappen, the man he was going toe-to-toe with for the title throughout last season.It's left Hamilton's chances of winning a record-breaking eighth world title this season slim at best, with the veteran driver conceding even before the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix that he was 'obviously' not vying for the honour.Wolff already conceded to Hamilton after the race that the Mercedes car was 'undriveable' and has now gone further, admitting that the German manufacturer's design 'doesn't work' having encountered another weekend to forget."All of the goodness and badness happens mainly on the floor and we have interesting ideas and concepts that we are exploring that have to find their way onto the car in the next few races. I wouldn’t say there is such thing as a concept being wrong.

Lewis Hamilton, after the Mercedes driver encountered further woes at Imola.A poor weekend for the seven-time world champion culminated in a frustrating afternoon at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, where Hamilton narrowly avoided a collision in the pit lane with Esteban Ocon and could only finish 13th - while teammate George Russell came fourth.To add further salt to the wounds, Hamilton suffered the embarrassment of being lapped by Max Verstappen - the man who he went toe-to-toe with for the title last season and the man he now cannot even get close to keeping pace with. Verstappen played down the lapping, which happened on lap 40, stating: "They've been slow all year so for me it's not really anything exciting, it just happens."Red Bull chief Marko, however, certainly enjoyed what he witnessed and couldn't help but to take the opportunity to make a swipe at Hamilton: "I mean, he was lapped by us.

Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton in 2016.During a four-year stint as teammates, Rosberg and Hamilton dominated the sport, winning 54 of 78 races in that period, with the two childhood friends seeing their relationship turn sour in the process.Hamilton won the titles in 2014 and 2015, with tempers boiling over in the 2016 season as Rosberg looked to win the title for the first time - leading to a number of incidents were the two teammates ended up colliding, with Toto Wolff describing an incident at Austria as 'brainless'.During this spell, Mercedes had to step-up to outline rules for the two drivers in order to keep them on the straight and narrow, putting punishments in place for any rule breaks, and Rosberg has lifted the lid on that battle."We made it extremely difficult. It got to the point where we were handed a code of conduct paper with what we were able to do in a wheel-to-wheel battle, even penalties with fines with a lot of zeroes attached to that because there was no other way.

Lewis Hamilton is 'unhappy' amid the team's continued struggles, with further issues encountered ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.The German outfit have been unable to fix their 'porpoising' issues in the opening rounds of the season, with those problems once again prevalent in Friday's qualifying and the team unable to find the pace in the Sprint to work their way back up the grid.That has already seen Hamilton declare that the team are 'obviously' not competing with Ferrari and Red Bull for the title this season, although the Brit has also made it clear that he has no desire to vacate his position.Still, it's easy to see that all is not well at Mercedes and the fallout of the struggles started to come to a head on Friday with Hamilton pictured in fierce discussions with team principal Toto Wolff following the exit in Q2.Coulthard has now had his say on the situation and has issued a frank assessment of the position that Hamilton and Mercedes find themselves in, stating: “Inevitably he’s not happy about that. The team are not happy about it.

George Russell's claims that the first Sprint of the 2022 season at Imola was 'processional'.Max Verstappen emerged victorious ahead of Charles Leclerc, while Mercedes continued to be way off the pace and finished outside of the top 10 - with Lewis Hamilton already writing off his team's title chances this season.While the Sprint was heralded for it's entertainment, with Red Bull's Verstappen overtaking his Ferrari counterpart on the final laps to seal victory and maximum points, those views were not shared by Russell. The British driver stated after the event that it was a 'processional', suggesting the Sprint was not long enough to lead to true competitiveness - despite the overtaking from the likes of Red Bull, Ferrari and McLaren during the 21 laps at Imola.Those comments were presented to F1 director Ross Brawn, who appeared to issue a dig at Mercedes' struggles so far this season by stating the opinions of the drivers towards the front of the grid would carry the most weight.“Whenever my driver’s had a bad car he’s complained about the race.

Lewis Hamilton after the teams' early-season woes continued at Imola, Nico Rosberg believes.The defending Constructor's Champions have struggled to find their rhythm in the 2022 season despite sitting second in the standings, finding themselves way off the pace of Ferrari and Red Bull. Their troubles continued in Friday's qualifying for the Emilia Romagna Sprint, with both Hamilton and teammate George Russell only narrowly squeezing through to the second round.Mercedes' chances of making it through to Q3 always looked slim and, with rain falling at Imola following a red flag, their fate was sealed - becoming the first time since the 2012 Japanese Grand Prix that neither Mercedes made it through to the final round of qualifying.Towards the end of the second round of qualifying, cameras showed coverage inside the Mercedes garage where Hamilton had exited his vehicle before the session came to a close and was pictured involved in fierce discussions with team principal Wolff.While Hamilton refused to clarify what was said in those discussions, his former teammate Nico Rosberg issued his verdict on the events.“It's very difficult to know what was said.

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff 'berating' Lewis Hamilton following a disappointing qualifying performance at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.Friday's session, deciding the starting position for the first Sprint race of 2022 on Saturday, took place at a very wet Imola where Mercedes once again struggled to find their pace.Hamilton almost went out in the first session, finishing just 0.004 seconds ahead of Yuki Tsunoda at the elimination zone, but both he and teammate George Russell bowed out in Q2 and were well behind the pace of their rivals. Remarkably, that brought an end to a stellar Mercedes record that has seen a car in the final round of qualifying in every race since the 2012 Japanese Grand Prix.Hamilton finished the session in the pits and out of his car, not taking to the track following a red flag due to the rain, and was pictured embroiled in what appeared to be some feisty discussions with Wolff - with fans picking up on the incident.@FormulaFuntime said: "Weird little exchange between Lewis and Toto at the end of Q2 there.

The pair are both widely-regarded among the greatest drivers in the long-established history of Formula One but choosing between them has been a difficult task for many fans.However, Russell seems to have no such problems as he not-so-subtly dubbed Hamilton the greatest when discussing how he sees a potential battle with his Mercedes colleague."I think because we're at different stages of our career there's no hard feelings either way.
