George Russell made a fellow Formula One driver buy him an expensive dinner after what went down at the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday.
McLaren's Lando Norris was the winner at Circuit de Monaco, with Charles Leclerc of Ferrari taking second and Oscar Piastri completing the podium.
Mercedes driver Russell didn't score any points after finishing 11th, just behind Williams' drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon.

Russell was left frustrated by the approach taken by Williams as a result of the two pit stops, with Albon purposely driving at slow speed so that his teammate Sainz could pit.
After plenty of waiting, Russell proceeded to cut the corner to overtake Albon and had no problem accepting the penalty, which ended up being a drive-through instead of a five or second punishment after stewards made their decision.
On the team radio, Russell said Albon was "driving dangerously slow and "just slamming on the brakes at all areas".
After the race, the 27-year-old stressed that Albon owed him one and will "definitely get the bill" for their planned dinner activity.

And lo and behold, on Sunday night evidence of Albon paying for the meal arrived on social media. The 29-year-old shared a picture of him holding the bill and posing alongside a smug Russell.
The exact contents of the receipt weren't quite visible but the stacked order prompted Albon to write, "You're welcome @GeorgeRussell63" in a post which garnered 1.4 million views.

The two drivers still have a strong friendship despite the competitive edge, with Albon almost expressing admiration for Russell's "cheeky moves" on the track.

“George is cheeky, when you’re in the car with him on the road, he does some cheeky moves," Albon said after the Grand Prix.
"He did it on the racetrack as well.
“I knew exactly what he was doing and it was a bit too obvious to get away with. But I applaud the effort, he had to do something to get points.
“And he did make us worry for a couple of laps before the drive-through penalty came through.”
