## Resource

Mercedes cracked the code on George Russell’s power unit glitch—it wasn’t hardware, but a software bug that prematurely deployed energy, forcing him to pay it back later, especially in high-stakes sectors like Spa. Fixed at the engine facility, the real test comes at Monza, where the conditions finally expose the fix. While driving style may have played a role, the team’s confident the core issue is solved—and Russell can finally relax heading into Hungary, where straight-line speed isn’t the make-or-break factor.
