GEORGE RUSSELL insisted Sunday’s Las Vegas Grand Prix “wasn't an enjoyable race” despite the Wisbech-born speedster coming second.

The 27-year-old initially finished third but was later upgraded to second after Lando Norris was disqualified for his car not beating competition regulations. But Russell revealed after the race that he suffered a steering problem in his Mercedes during qualifying and then again during the race.
