Alex Albon revealed that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell picked the “most expensive thing” on the menu in a pricey dinner date following the F1 Monaco Grand Prix.

Albon and Russell had dinner after the race in Monte Carlo after their heated on-track clash in the prinꦉcipality.

Russell was frustrated behind Albon, who was deliberately driving slow to give teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Carlos Sainz a pit stop gap.

Due to𒆙 Monaco’s new two-sto📖p rule, Racing Bulls and Williams deployed this tactic.

With Albon driving so slowly, ꦬRussell took ma🍎tters into his own hands by intentionally cutting the Nouvelle Chicane to get ahead.

Even though Russell received a hefty drive-through penalty, it benefitted his race due to Albon’s slow driv🌳ing.

The pair went for din🃏ner afterwards, with Albon picking up the bill.

, in Barcelona, Albon shed light on their dinner outing.

“Great. He ordered the most expensive thing on the menu. He did actually. It was the lobster pasta but he🗹 skipped on desserts so it kind of equalled out,” Albon said. “It was good. It was a fun evening.”

Albon felt inclined to pay for it aft♛er making it a “miserable” race for the likes of Russell in Monaco.

“I did pay, yes. I should pay. That was miserable, that race and we✅ had something to play in it so at least it felt like we had something going but for the others it was a bit worse, but yes,” he added.

Albon was then ask෴ed whether drivers talk about F1 and racing in general over dinner.

“No, honestly, th✃ere’s very little talk about racing,” he explained.

“There’s not much talk about racing outside of the racing. Not too much. We do talk about it and honestly to going into a point, it seems tricky to know what to really do to improve some of that racing that we saw. I do think it was worth a try and I think collectively all of us - teams and drivers - thought the two-stop should create sꦰomething but it moved the goalposts a little bit.

“We wil༺l need to ha✤ve another reconsideration of how we can improve some of the racing.”
