I am hopeful in saying that most of George’s fans would agree he should have not found in this predicament if he reacted properly. On the other hand I absolutely place the blame on Fernando for his behavior, since it’s not the first time he pulls moves like this.

I think if Russel had more experience with Alonso’s shenanigans he wouldn’t have crashed. But I don’t think Russell is the only driver in the field that would have reacted poorly there, so I have trouble blaming him for the outcome.

I say this as someone who doesn’t particularly like or dislike him (medium talent + medium personality).

Fair enough. The only thing I would like to mention is that George displayed so much talent and potential when he was in Williams, I honestly don’t know where the hell it went after his move to Mercedes.
