Russell crashes for Mercedes in Yas Test.... season ending for George.After completing 58 laps, the GP distance, George suffered 'a component failure' on his W14, and hit the barriers at Turn 6. It seems the car wasnt too badly damaged but the reason for the as yet unidentified component failed is under investigation..
He was uninjured as the car was recovered back to the pits, with Frederik Vesti continuing on in the concurrent young driver test.
Elsewhere on a relatively quiet day of testing, F2 champion Theo Pourchaire suffered a slow start with problems on his Alfa Romeo, but continued on and has reached 60 laps.
As shown in the graphic earlier Carlos Sainz topping the morning session for Ferrari from Sergio Perez.
Things were delayed at the start.... delayed by 25 minutes due to the Medical Helicopter not showing up in time for a 9am green flag, while a water leak under the W Hotel bridge at Turns 13/14 resulted in a further 24-minute stoppage.
