George Russell responds to reports of online abuse aimed at him, and says: “Like Lewis said, you want to feel the support, not giving out negativity to others.”
Allison says “Lewis has, not by accident, been the best qualifier in the history of the sport, because I think he’s been the best driver in the sport, but he’s struggling to make it stick this year by fine margins”.
After the Canadian GP, George says “all the numbers back at the factory told us we’re going to be finding a big chunk of performance with these upgrades”.
George and Lewis had a close on-track battle at the Canadian GP, and when Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff was asked it was ‘too close’, he gave a simple verdict.
George discusses his close battle with Lewis at the Canadian GP, and says “when you’re racing with one of the greats, you know that you can trust them”.
