Photographers' picks - Russia

Photographers take hundreds of pictures throughout a grand prix weekend, ranging from track action to paddock atmosphere and the champagne moment on the podium.

In partnership with XPB Images, we’ve asked each individual photographer - Jamey Price, Russell Batchelor, and Laurent Charniaux - for one standout photo from the race weekend, with a little bit of background to the shot. Using the comments section below, you can pick your favourite; they’re a competitive bunch…

This week, the Russian Grand Prix from Sochi.
