George Russell is determined to stay with Mercedes. That made the winner of the Grand Prix of Canada clear again after the race. The contract of the 27-year-old Brit ends after this year.
“I talk to no one else and to all teams who have shown interest, I have always said that I am planning to stay with Mercedes. That has been clear at all times,” said Russell after the GP of Canada at the press conference.
Russell won another race on Sunday for the first time since last year in Las Vegas. He is currently fourth in the World Cup stand, with nineteen points less than Max Verstappen: 136 at 155.
The Brit has been connected to Mercedes for years and if it is up to him it will stay that way. Even when Verstappen was allowed to make a sensational switch from Red Bull Racing to Mercedes. “I am loyal to Mercedes. They gave me this opportunity to get to Formula 1,” Russell is certainly.
“There have been no resentment because of the conversations that are going, especially not around Max. Because, as I have often said: why would teams have no interest in Max? If every driver would no longer have a contract next year, Max would be the first candidate for each team. And that is understandable.”
This season Russell is a duo with the Italian Kimi Antonelli at Mercedes. The teenager, eighteen years old pass, is working on a pretty debut season and is in seventh place in the rankings. On Sunday he finished third in Canada, behind Verstappen. That meant his first podium place ever.
Russell is not worried about the future, even after Antonelli has shown himself to the general public. “In the end there are two seats for each racing team. I know that if I keep performing like that, my position will definitely not be in danger. So I feel good and we are not in a hurry to conduct contract negotiations,” the Brit emphasized.
“Kimi and I are now teammates and we are both performance well. And both as former junior drivers of mercedes. If we achieve results like today, why would you want to change that works?”
