Russell is ready to 'reassess' his claim that Red Bull could win every F1 race in 2023 with the introduction of the upcoming Mercedes car upgrades.
chalked fifth and seventh place, Russell said that he expected the Milton Keynes team to"win every single race this season".
While Red Bull was not as dominant as it had been in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, the stronger Mercedes showing in Melbourne left Russell to reevaluate his comments that the defending constructors' champion would win every race. "I do still think Red Bull are a class ahead of everybody else and for sure, Lewis and I got the most out of it [on Saturday in Australia].
"We're talking that three tenths, is a little bit. Normally, they're a second ahead. Now, they're three tenths ahead. That's still a huge amount in the world of F1."Russell has talked up the wind tunnel data shown by Mercedes' coming upgrades, although they will not debut until the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in late May at the earliest.
