About
George Russell is Mercedes’ Mr Consistent: smooth, analytical and relentlessly quick over a full season. A multiple Grand Prix winner, he has spent 2026 in the shadow of his young team mate’s title run while quietly banking the points that sealed the constructors’ championship for Mercedes.
Fourth in the standings on 250 points, nine behind Hamilton, Russell’s target for the run-in is simple: best of the rest is not enough, and he races like it.
