Has George Russell rediscovered his mojo after a lights-to-flag victory in Baku?
Rosanna Tennant is joined by Marc Priestley and Harry Benjamin to reflect on the race and Russellโs impressive performa
Nice show people, thank you! One thing I would say Marc, is that a young Max never found himself in a championship winning car and therefore, always had to be more aggressive to gain positions. Kimmi knows that with patience, his car will allow him to overtake most of the field. That is a different situation to be in, but having said that, he drove maturely because he knows, that he doesn't have to win all the races to come out on top in the end.
I agree with your analysis about George. He is probably more calm now, having "lost" the championship and that has made him drive more freely and, as it seems, faster and better.
He is still young, looked race fit. Has all the experience. If hulkenberg, Alonso can do it then Vettel also surely can. But I donโt think he would come just to be on the grid and fight for 1-2 points. On the hindsight leaving Aston was a good decision. But one can still hope he will return on track someday, the sport is just not the same
Listened to this earlier on 5L. So like the fact you all give each other space to talk. Thanks!
