With 13 minutes🤪 gone in FP2, Russell crashed heavily at T🎶urn 8.

Replays showed Russell attacking the kerb at Turn 8 ไbefore losing control of his car, spinning off into the barrieꦓrs.

Due to the severity of the crash, Russell was taꦅken to the medical centre.

𝕴Thankfully, the Mercedes driver 💜came away without any injuries as he was released by the medical centre.

Up until that point, it had been a positive day for Mercedes, with Russell topping the timꦐesheets in FP2.

Reflecting on his second crash in seven days, Russell told F1TV in Mexico: “Honestly, don’t know what happened. Just the car started bounꦦcing on the ground and before I had a chance to catch it, I was already spinning.

“A lot of 𒁃work for the guys tonight again. It seems like it’s one thing after another at the 💜moment.

“It’s frustrating. FP1 we were very strong, very fast. Tried to take the same line, cutting tไhat corner and🍷 for whatever reason on this occasion in FP2 the thing just started going on me.”

Russell stressed the importance of fina🧔l practice after missing out in FP2, eꦰven though second practice was a Pirelli tyre test for next year’s compounds.

“I mean FP2… becꦛause it was the Pirelli tyre test it wasn’t hug✤ely valuable in terms of what you learn for the race weekend,” he added.

“O🐷bviously missed out on laps. FP3 is going to be 💞important. Just hope we can get the car fixed.”
