George Russell pokes fun at Fernando Alonso as he's still holding on to podium trophy

After having a podium taken away from him at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix last weekend, George Russell has taken to social media to try and get the trophy back to its actual owner, Fernando Alonso. Russell enjoyed a strong weekend at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit and claimed a solid fourth place finish, before hailing the weekend as 'one of my strongest weekends in F1'.
