So not unusual.

Why would Mercedes sabotage Russell...makes zero sense.
And then apparently used Russell performance as a bargaining chip in Hamilton's contract negotiations....which would have been a lot stronger chip had they not "sabotaged" Russell's win.

I know no one takes anything MBelgium says seriously such is the conflicting nonsense he writes but sometimes it has corrected.
It would not have made much difference if Russell had been allowed win the race with that being used as a 'bargaining chip' by Wolf for the HAM situation,but Wolf panicked and screwed him though the fact Russ ran rings round BOT was enough to convince even simple minds that the car is the star.
