MANAMA, Dec 6 — Team chief Toto Wolff praised George Russell and compared him to “a finance guy” because of his serious nature yesterday after the young Briton qualified second for today’s Sakhir Grand Prix. “I said to him ‘if you end up in the first four, that’s great and if you get passed by someone and up in fifth, that’s fine too,’“ said Wolff. “But that’s already a fantastic result today.
