Russell Needs 2.0 Upgrade to Challenge Antonelli | F1 News
Description
David Croft is calling for a “Russell 2.0” as George Russell seeks to challenge teammate Kimi Antonelli for F1 glory, arguing the current Mercedes car doesn’t suit Russell’s style despite his recent Austrian win. Russell admits straight-line speed is lacking and struggled in qualifying due to a mistake and traffic, finishing fourth on the grid behind Antonelli’s pole. Croft draws parallels to Oscar Piastri’s past comments, suggesting Russell may be recognizing the car’s setup favors Antonelli — a reality that could force Russell to reinvent himself to truly compete for the title.
