Mercedes driver George Russell jumped from his car to race over and check on Zhou Guanyu after his Alfa Romeo vaulted a barrier at Silverstone at Sunday’s Grand Prix. Following his heroics during the race, Russell told Sky Sports: ‘Firstly glad to see that Zhou is doing OK. Obviously an absolutely horrific incident. I got swamped by all the cars and next thing I know I got touched and I was in the side of Zhou and that was it. ‘I told the marshalls to leave the car and next thing when I got back the car was on the back of the flat bed. I got swamped at the start and the next thing I know I was in the side of Zhou.’. Alex Albon also asked the marshalls to check on Zhou first when they came to him.
