Robert Kubica has questioned Williams’ strategy after George Russell was given “priority” despite the Polish driver being ahead in the Monaco Grand Prix.

The Williams drivers lined up 19th and 20th on the Monte Carlo grid with Russell ahead of his team-mate.

It was, however, the Pole who made the better start and gained track position over his team-mate.

Williams, though, opted to pit Russell first with the rookie stopping on lap 10 under the Safety Car while Kubica only pitted on lap 21.

Russell finished P15 to Kubica’s 18th place.

“I thought the driver in front gets priority over who is behind?” Kubica asked his engineer over the radio.
