"In Monaco, the walls are closer, but because you're going far slower, if you make a mistake, you're not into the wall as quickly, and you can recover it sometimes, a small lock-up."

— George Russell , Athlete

"There's a lot of really fast corners, but the barrier is kind of like coming back onto the track. So, if you are to go wide and hit the wall, you're not hitting it kind of at the same angle as the car is going."

— George Russell , Athlete

"Another element of the challenge here, which probably won't cause major crashes, but I think there'll be a lot of lock-ups."
