    Formula 1: Russell Holds Off Verstappen To Take Victory In Chaotic Azerbaijan GP

    By IANS News September 26, 2026 • 22:50 PM View: 149
    Azerbaijan Grand Prix: George Russell survived a late challenge from former champion Max Verstappen to secure his third victory of the season in a dramatic Azerbaijan Grand Prix that saw six drivers, including McLaren’s Lando Norris, retire and fail to finish.

    The Mercedes driver built on a strong start to control the first half, leaving Oscar Piastri to defend against the charging Red Bull pair of Verstappen and Isack Hadjar while Russell extended his lead.

    An error from Williams’ Alex Albon shook up the race as the Safety Car was deployed and the Briton battled to hold on at the restart, but the action was halted for a second time when Franco Colapinto locked up, taking out his Alpine teammate Pierre Gasly and Norris.
