David Coulthard thinks it's too early to judge George Russell against Lewis Hamilton. ✍️ Formula_Nerds f1
David Coulthard thinks it is too early to compare Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell, whilst their current car is not performing at its best.The younger Briton is currently two places and 34 points better off in the standings than the seven-time world champion on the other side of the garage. He also leads the qualifying battle 5-4.
“I think George is a future world champion. I think he’s a fantastic driver. and I think he’s earned that place in the team. But we won’t truly know how he compares to Lewis until they have a winning car again, because right now, this is the best car that George has ever driven, relative to where the fastest car is, and this is not the best car that Lewis has driven.
“It’s two different mindsets, two different phases of their careers. And that’s why right now you go ‘Oh, George’s outperforming Lewis’. Well, let’s wait and see when they qualify first and second in whatever order it happens to be just how the running order is then.”The former 13-time grand prix winner went on to explain how, in his experience, the very best drivers only really come into their own with a fast and tricky car.
