George Russell’s ‘a lot of lost points’ in Canada could lead to ‘uncomfortable night’, says Jenson Button

Button, speaking to Sky Sports F1, acknowledged that the incident would undoubtedly frustrate Russell, who bore responsibility for the costly mishap. The former champion expressed his belief that Russell would find it difficult to shake off the disappointment of the crash and emphasized the importance of learning from such errors.

“Most corners around the world, he’d be fine, he’s just run wide,” Button commented, referring to the specific challenges posed by the Montreal circuit. “But you’ve got the walls up against the kerb here on the track’s edge. So it’s tricky, but we all know that.”
