拉塞尔承认美国大奖赛速度糟糕
拉塞尔承认自己在美国大奖赛的速度“糟糕”，他落后夺冠的队友安东内利近一分钟，也不清楚差距为何如此之大。
乔治·拉塞尔：这位梅赛德斯车手在美国大奖赛上承认自己的速度“糟糕”，他最终落后基米·安东内利近一分钟。
这位梅赛德斯车手在W17赛车中表现挣扎，最终落后统治比赛并夺冠的队友安东内利七个名次、54秒；安东内利在积分榜上对拉塞尔的领先优势扩大到123分，有望本周末在墨西哥锁定世界冠军。
乔治·拉塞尔承认他的梅赛德斯赛车速度“糟糕”，这让他在美国大奖赛上仅列第八。
乔治·拉塞尔承认自己在美国大奖赛上的速度“糟糕”，这位梅赛德斯车手也不清楚为何自己会落后夺冠的队友基米·安东内利如此大的差距。
在这场56圈的比赛中，拉塞尔落后姊妹梅赛德斯赛车54秒，以第八名完赛，仅勉强保住数学上的争冠希望，进入下周的墨西哥站，安东内利有望在那里锁定总冠军。
拉塞尔在比赛第一段（stint）中保持了第六的发车位，但在唯一一次进站（pit stop）时因首圈与奥斯卡·皮亚斯特里的事故被罚时五秒，接受处罚后跌至第八；当时他被判定在与迈凯伦车手缠斗时驶出赛道而获得了优势。

拉塞尔随后在最后26圈紧追同样一停的皮亚斯特里，但未能找到重新超越这位澳大利亚车手的方法。
拉塞尔告诉天空体育F1频道：“速度糟透了。简而言之就是这样。”
“五秒（罚时）让情况更糟，可能让我丢了两三个位置，但在需要的时候速度不够好。”
在美国大奖赛上，基米·安东内利起步飞快，而乔治·拉塞尔则被处以五秒罚时。
拉塞尔没有为自己缺乏竞争力找借口，并表示他目前无法立即解释为何自己在奥斯汀的这个周末如此艰难。
“就是不够快，”他补充道。
“我需要试着弄清楚原因。当你落后这么多时，这很奇怪。希望某处能找到一些答案，但目前我还没有。”
拉塞尔出了什么问题？
安东内利的这场胜利是他本赛季的第九胜，梅赛德斯车队领队托托·沃尔夫认为这代表了他“迄今为止表现最好的一场比赛”。
这是梅赛德斯升级版赛车首次获胜，自空气动力学改版于10月初在马来西亚巴林大奖赛上首次亮相以来，这支世界冠军领先车队花了一些时间才发挥出它的最佳性能。

不过，车队表示这些改动缩小了赛车的最佳调校窗口。
谈到拉塞尔的这个周末，沃尔夫说：“乔治就是太挣扎了。我相信这是因为赛车的操作窗口太难把握了。
“在Q2他还在那里，差不多就在附近。Q3，没起作用。他说，‘这算我的。’
“而今天在比赛中，我不知道，我们卡在皮亚斯特里后面，看起来有点不公平，为什么他没能超过去。同样的引擎，同样的电能充电和释放。但我现在要去找他谈谈。”
“在一场比赛的距离里，他不可能慢54秒。”
天空体育F1评论员简森·巴顿的分析：
“乔治经历过很多艰难的比赛，但也有一些出色的比赛，而这正是真正难以理解的地方——他如何能在某些赛道上将那辆车的潜力发挥到极致，而在其他赛道上却做不到。
“奥斯汀站很艰难，因为他起步位置太靠后了。他身处车阵之中，而当你身处车阵时，有时很难向前推进。你处在乱流之中。你试图在策略上做些不同的事情，但随后却吃到五秒罚时，这让你更加落后。”
“我不认为他的速度差得那么远。在一场比赛的距离里，他不可能慢54秒。”

George Russell: Mercedes driver admits to 'rubbish' pace in United States GP after finishing almost one minute behind Kimi Antonelli
Mercedes driver finished seven places and 54 seconds behind dominant race-winning team-mate Kimi Antonelli after struggle in the W17 car; Antonelli poised to clinch the world championship this weekend in Mexico after growing lead over Russell to 123 points
George Russell admits the pace of his Mercedes was 'rubbish ', leaving him eighth at the United States GP.
George Russell admitted his pace in the United States Grand Prix was "rubbish", with the Mercedes driver at a loss to why he trailed race-winning team-mate Kimi Antonelli by such a large margin,
Russell finished 54 seconds behind the sister Mercedes in the 56-lap race in an eighth place that only just kept him in mathematical championship contention heading to next week's race in Mexico, where Antonelli is set to clinch the crown.
Russell had held his grid position of sixth through the race's first stint but dropped to eighth after serving a five-second penalty at his sole pit stop for an incident with Oscar Piastri in the opening lap, when he was judged to have gained an advantage by running off track in battle with the McLaren.

Russell subsequently spent the final 26 laps on the similarly one-stopping Piastri's tail but was unable to find a way back past the Australian driver.
Russell told Sky Sports F1: "The pace was rubbish. That's the long and short of it.
"The five-second [penalty] didn't help things and probably cost me two or three positions but the pace wasn't good enough when it needed to be."
Kimi Antonelli got a flying start at the United States Grand Prix as George Russell was handed a five-second penalty.
Russell made no excuse for his lack of competitiveness and said he had no immediate answer for why his Austin weekend was such a struggle.
"Just not been quick enough," he added.
"I need to try and understand why that is. It's strange when you're so far off. Hopefully there are some answers somewhere but at the moment I don't have them."
What went wrong for Russell?
Antonelli's win was his ninth of the year and represented what Toto Wolff, Mercedes' team principal, believes was "the best race that he's delivered so far".
It was the first win for Mercedes upgraded car, which has taken time for the world championship leaders to get the best out out of since the aerodynamic revisions debut at the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia at the start of October.

The team have said, however, that the changes have narrowed the car's optimum set-up window.
On Russell's weekend, Wolff said: "George just struggled so much. And I believe this is because the operational window of the car is so difficult.
"In Q2 he was there and thereabouts. Q3, it didn't work. He said, 'that goes on me'.
"And today in the race, I don't know, we got stuck behind Piastri, which looks a bit unfair why he didn't get past. It's the same engine, it's the same electric charging and deployment. But I'm going to see him now."
'He's not 54 seconds slower over a race distance'
Analysis from Sky Sports F1's Jenson Button:
"George has had a lot of tough races but also some great races and that's the thing that's really difficult to understand - how he's able to get the maximum out of that car on some tracks but not at others.
"Austin was difficult as he started so far down. He was in the pack and when you're in the pack, sometimes it's difficult to move forward. You're in the dirty air. You try to do something different with strategy but then you get a five-second penalty which puts you back further.
"I don't believe his pace is that far off. He's not 54 seconds slower over a race distance."
