George Russell expects Lewis Hamilton to have a much stronger Formula 1 season this year and that Mercedes' car woes are over.
last week suggested the problem is a thing of the past, and Russell is looking forward to a battle with Hamilton without stressing about the car.
“I'm excited to have that challenge," Russell said."But ultimately the two of us are looking for the top step on the podium, not just the No. 1 spot on the team.” Both looked in relaxed mood as they arrived at the Sakhir circuit on Thursday for their media duties, ahead of Friday's first practice session. Russell gave a thumbs up while Hamilton strolled through the paddock with an eye-catching all-red outfit and red-framed sunglasses.
There were issues with the car's balance and traction during testing in Bahrain, but Russell is confident those have been resolved. “We had a really good time between the test and the race to analyse what happened," he said."There were a few things going on with the car that we didn't quite expect but we've been able to resolve pretty easily. just working slightly in the wrong window, we were running with a different rear wing in the Bahrain test just for some correlation work, and that wasn't an optimal rear wing.
