The Thai driver mentioned he does not rate Russell’s cycling skills very highly. However, it was Albon who got hurt during the outing. The accident was sizeable, as the former Red Bull driver had to pay a visit to the hospital.

“George isn’t a very good cyclist, okay. I was a bit more experienced on the downhill stuff. We’re in a forest and there was this branch coming across and I went over the branch. I did a front flip and landed on my collarbone and I was out for a race.”

“So I got back racing after maybe three weeks. George was there when I crashed, he wheel-chaired me into the hospital. We were in the car park; he was finding a wheelchair, and he was trying to like get me into it and push me down into A&E,” explained the Williams driver.
