George Russell: I could have had two titles already.

      George Russell has never been a Formula 1 champion, his best result at the end of the season is fourth place in 2022, but in an interview with The Athletic he stated that he could have achieved more.

      George Russell: "I was in Lewis' shadow. It's not so easy to be a teammate of a seven-time world champion for three years. It used to be like this: if you finish ahead of Hamilton in a race or in the championship, you win the race or the championship. If I had joined the team five years earlier, I could have already won two league titles.

      My approach will not change with the extension of the contract. I keep doing my job. I work with the same group of engineers, the same group of mechanics. Obviously, Lewis was a great reference point for everyone, but nothing has changed for me since he left. I also warm up, get behind the wheel, lower the visor and go to the track. As before, I am the owner of my own destiny."
