Russell says F1 drivers want answers from the FIA about some of the 'rogue decisions' made in recent races. 'It's the inconsistency that makes it challenging for the rest of us.'
Scrutiny over calls made by F1 race control ramped up after the chaotic end to the Australian Grand Prix, which was red-flagged three times and then restarted to finish under the safety car.
Asked by Motorsport.com for his thoughts on the calls race control made in Australia, Russell said that the drivers and the FIA needed to talk to clear some issues up. "They're not stupid, and they're trying to do the best job possible. But things do need to be ironed out to understand where their approach is going to lie.
"We've seen a few crazy or rogue decisions being made recently. If they're consistent, that's absolutely fine. But it's the inconsistency that makes it challenging for the rest of us."
