George Russell's crash from first place in Singapore will be costly for Mercedes. Repairs to a modern Formula 1 car can easily run into hundreds of thousands of pounds, sometimes even millions, depending on the damage to complex components like the chassis, engine, and aerodynamics. This impacts the team's budget and development schedule.
