GEORGE RUSSELL says ‘mistakes’ by race chiefs robbed Lewis Hamilton of last season’s Formula One title. Russell, who has just become Hamilton’s new team-mate at Mercedes, aired his views at the launch of the team’s new W13 car. Hamilton was on course to win a record eighth Drivers’ championship crown before being denied by a controversial call in the season finale race in Abu Dhabi in December. The FIA’s new set-up means a team of race directors will now be supported by video referees when it comes to making mid-race decisions. But that will be little comfort to Hamilton – and Russell has sympathy for his new team-mate.
