Russell led the early stages of the race after making a brilliant start to pass Red Bull's Max Verstappen, but dropped to seventh after losing out when he pitted under an early Safety Car, just before the race was168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: suspended.
Russell would then miss ꦆthe craziest part of the race in Melbourne.
Further red flags delayed the concl🅠usion, until Max Verstappen finally claimed the victory until confusing circumstances.
