After finishing Hungarian Grand Prix FP2 in P20, George Russell says Mercedes was “obviously on very different programmes to everybody else”.
George Russell finished Hungarian Grand Prix FP2 in P20, but afterwards he was relatively optimistic about Mercedes’ chances this weekend.
“It didn’t feel too bad in all honesty,” the Briton said.
“It was obviously on very different programmes to everybody else. We only used one set of tyres throughout – it was a set of used tyres from FP1.

“The lap times don’t really give a true representation and I am sure we will be better. We’re just focused on trying to improve.
“We always know we tend to get better as the weekend progresses which is the right way round to be. A few interesting things we learned even in that one session.
“Let’s see what we can do tonight,” Russell concluded.
