George Russell will wait for glory: “It took Michael Schumacher four years”
George Russell, the British racing driver currently with Mercedes, has signed a contract extension until the end of 2025 to continue partnering with Lewis Hamilton. He has learned from the experiences of previous champions like Max Verstappen and Michael Schumacher, who had to wait several years before winning championships. Russell acknowledges that he will not be the undisputed number one driver in the team, as he will be driving alongside the esteemed Hamilton for the next two-and-a-half years, just like how Mercedes successfully managed the dynamic between Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. Despite this, Russell never considered leaving Mercedes and feels a strong sense of loyalty towards the team that believed in him, aiming to deliver a championship with them.
