Red Bull driver Isack Hadjar has accepted blame for his crash during the Mexico Grand Prix, while stewards' decision to penalize George Russell at the United States Grand Prix has been supported. The events unfolded during the Formula One weekend at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, on October 25, 2026.
Hadjar, competing in his rookie season, went off track in Mexico and later acknowledged the error was his own. Meanwhile, Russell received a penalty during the US Grand Prix that race officials deemed appropriate under the sporting regulations.
The United States Grand Prix marked the 19th round of the 2026 Formula One World Championship. Hadjar's Red Bull car was seen on track during the race, with the team continuing its development program through the Americas swing.
