George Russell will start fourth in Las Vegas and would like to fight for a podium…

George Russell: "To be honest, I hope I can fight for the win, to win a second Las Vegas Grand Prix in a row. We'll certainly try to win, because on this track in cool conditions we should be quick, but, as always, we have to deal with many unknowns — that's what makes Formula 1 great! Lando and Max are starting ahead of me, and both have won races recently, but I hope we can fight with them for a podium. But to achieve that, we'll have to work hard. I really like this race, the atmosphere in this city is unbelievably cool, and when we speed past all those hotels lit up with lights, it's an insanely vivid experience! Formula 1 drivers are in a privileged position — we're racing in Las Vegas, doing what we love, and I'm thrilled by it all."

      George Russell saldrá en Las Vegas desde la cuarta posición y le gustaría luchar por el podio…

      George Russell: «Para ser sincero, espero poder luchar por la victoria para ganar el Gran Premio de Las Vegas por segunda vez consecutiva. Sin duda intentaremos vencer, porque en este circuito y con temperaturas frescas deberíamos ser rápidos, pero, como siempre, tenemos por delante una carrera con muchas incógnitas —¡y eso es lo que hace grande a la Fórmula 1!

      Lando y Max saldrán por delante de mí, y últimamente ambos han ganado carreras, pero espero que podamos luchar con ellos por el podio. Pero para lograrlo habrá que trabajar duro. Me gusta mucho esta carrera, la atmósfera de esta ciudad es increíble, y cuando pasamos a toda velocidad junto a todos esos hoteles iluminados, la experiencia es increíblemente intensa.

      Los pilotos de Fórmula 1 estamos en una posición privilegiada: corremos en Las Vegas, hacemos lo que más nos apasiona, y estoy encantado con todo esto».

George Russell (3rd): “When Max came out of the pits right in front of me, I thought I had a chance. He had cold tyres, and I attacked with everything I had.
I damaged the tyres, and from that moment I kept saying over the radio that I wasn't sure this set would last until the finish.
It was really tough for me. Not my best race, so a podium was probably the best I could do today.”
Kimi Antonelli (5th): “I had a very strong pace today, especially in the last ten laps. I tried to manage the situation after seeing in the middle of the race that the tyres started to grain. That worried me a bit, especially after the team told me they were switching to ‘Plan B’, which involved running to the finish on this set of tyres.
So I tried to manage the tyre condition, but when Oscar Piastri caught up to me in the DRS zone I started attacking, the tyres cleaned up, and thanks to that my pace began to pick up.
I'm very pleased we made it to the finish without a pit stop and scored important points for the team.” George Russell made it onto the podium in Las Vegas, finishing third.
