George Russell might have to play catch up on Sunday during the Turkish Grand Prix.The Williams driver, is set to take some new parts meaning he could start the race from the back of the grid.
Upon arrival at Istanbul Park, Williams decided to replace the internal combustion engine (ICE), turbo and MGU-H in Russell's car. All these three components will be replaced for the fourth time during the fourteenth Grand Prix of the year and so Russell is facing a grid penalty.
This makes the task of scoring his first point almost impossible at Istanbul Park. However, the Turkish Grand Prix is often full of surprises, so Russell can still hope for a good result in the race.
