    So, did Russell actually goad Max into overtaking under safety car? Or was Max just sleeping?

    Because the leading driver is free to break as long as he is within the Perez distance

      Russell absolutely tried to get a penalty for Max. It’s pretty obvious from his driver cam. You don’t drive up the ass of the safety car, signal them to go faster and then slow down when the safety car speeds up.

      I thought Russell was ok. He did brake, but it didn’t seem egregious. Verstappen was already nearly alongside even before that, which didn’t help him

      I think Russell was keeping heat in his tyres by braking hard and accelerating again. Verstappen was just following at a constant speed and was caught out a bit by what Russell was doing.
