0:28 Watch the clash between George Russell and Carlos Sainz on the opening lap of the F1 Sprint, plus the other early wheel-to-wheel moments Watch the clash between George Russell and Carlos Sainz on the opening lap of the F1 Sprint, plus the other early wheel-to-wheel momentsGeorge Russell has lost three positions and been shuffled out of the top 10 on the British GP grid after being penalised for a tangle with Ferrari's Carlos Sainz in Saturday's F1 Sprint. Sainz finished 11th but now gains a place on the grid courtesy of Russell's demotion. Stewards investigated the incident after the session and found Russell to be at fault, applying the grid penalty and one additional point to his superlicence (a seventh in the last 12-month period). Bad news for George Russell. "Both because of the shorter length of Sprint Qualifying and because it is used to establish the grid for the race, the Stewards feel that grid position penalties, as imposed here, are more appropriate."
