'Not good enough in all regards' - Russell laments problems after Mercedes teammate Antonelli wins Belgian GP

Very happy, it was a great result, great teamwork. It was a hard-fought race because Ferrari was quick and especially today the tow was very powerful, it was hard to break away, but we managed to hold on and to bring it home. Spa and Silverstone were the two not most difficult tracks because there's Monza that is coming as well, but I would say one of those tracks that are on the bad side of things for us and to finish first and second is a really good effort in those two races. Now we are going into Budapest with a track layout that fits on paper a bit more our car and I hope we can do as good. I think it was a good race, a little bit unlucky with the VC compared to Charles, but I just tried to do my race, some little balance limitations, but for us on the weekend it was quite straightforward to beat P3, I think it was a good result. Ultimately, sorry for George because that's obviously the end of his race, but I do agree that it was racing, it's not like I went aggressive and was misplaced or anything like that, so I think it was just an unfortunate scenario, which happens in racing. But then I had damage as well, so I carried that through the race. Yeah, we definitely need a bit more, for sure. We feel like we're just that one step behind, we're always trying to hang on to the cars ahead, so it's not the easiest position to be in, but hopefully the new, all the upgrades we can bring will help us with that. The pace was easily good enough for a potential podium. We just had a terrible pit stop, we were unlucky with the VSCs as well, we probably should have taken the VSC, it would have been a long stint on the medium, but I'm going to save more time by boxing on the VSC than I am by going five laps longer. My life was just very difficult today, but the pace was very strong, so still some positives, I guess. It's one thing after another, after another, after another. Not good enough in all regards, so try and reset again, I've done it enough times this season, and see what we can do. Incident with Lewis, I've not really seen it, I thought it was probably a racing incident, but I'm not going to blame Lewis. If things were normal, I wouldn't have been even battling with Lewis, I would have been battling with Kimi and Max ahead.
