Mercedes driver George Russell held off Red Bull's Max Verstappen for his fourth career race win, while McLaren teammates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris collided on Sunday at t Grand Prix.

“Yeah, absolutely,” Wolff told Sky Sports F1 when asked if it would be a shame for Verstappen to miss a race. “He’s a main protagonist. He has his rough edges, but is also a fair racer, and we’ve seen it yesterday that when he’s called out, that wasn’t an issue.”
