Russell: The fight with Antonelli will keep me energized

      Previously, George Russell's partner in Mercedes was experienced Lewis Hamilton, and this year behind the wheel of the second car will sit a debutant Andrea Kimi Antonelli, to whom George would not want to concede. George Russell: "Competition with Antonelli will keep me in tone, there is no doubt about it. I remember myself at 18 and I realize that I was as fast then as I am today. But I've become more experienced. I know how to cope with the pressure of Formula 1, with everything that is associated with the work of a team of 2000 people, But in terms of speed it is either there or it is not. I think Kimi has speed, so I give him credit. I hope we work as a team. I look forward to evaluating his achievements. But I realize that it will not be easy. You can't underestimate your opponents, even if it's your partner. I remember myself at that age, when I wanted to prove something to everyone.
