George Russell given drive‑through after failing to serve five‑second penalty
sportsJun 7, 202615133
George Russell was given a five-second penalty early in the Monaco Grand Prix for speeding in the pit lane and did not serve it when he pitted. Race stewards converted the unserved five-second penalty into a drive-through, forcing Russell to pass through the pit lane and costing him significant track position. The chaotic Monte Carlo race also saw retirements from Max Verstappen and Lando Norris and a separate penalty for Lewis Hamilton, intensifying the scramble for points. The drive-through effectively ruined Russell's chances of a strong result at Monaco and deepened a frustrating weekend for the Mercedes driver.
