The world championship rankings frankly do not do him any justice. At the end of the first part of the season, the coldness of the figures is even quite insolent with him: George Russell is only 8th in the championship, behind Sergio Pérez (mind you...), and is even 34 points behind his teammate Lewis Hamilton. Sport – and in particular this one – is complex and sometimes it is important to know how to read between the lines, or rather between the numbers. Because behind this anonymous championship position lies a completely different reality: few have been stronger than George Russell in 2024.
By his own admission, the Briton even had the best season of his career so far, and continued his improvement curve.
