Although the 23-year-old seems to shrug off the idea of ‘luck’, he is certainly due a healthy dose of the good variety after a number of setbacks in his young F1 career.
Last time out in Austria, the youngster finished in a painful 11th to narrowly miss out on his first points for Williams.
When deputising for a Covid-struck Hamilton in the Mercedes car last year, he was steaming towards a sensational victory before a puncture put an end to his race.
Still, time is firmly on Russell’s side and the Mercedes-affiliated junior driver is widely expected to make the step up to the title-challenging team, sooner or later.
