In a shocking turn of events, the highly anticipated contract renewal between George Russell and Mercedes is still up in the air, leaving fans and pundits on the edge of their seats. Speculations were rife a couple of months ago about Russell’s imminent extension with the Silver Arrows, but as we find ourselves in mid-June, the deal has yet to materialize, raising questions about the hold-up.

Amidst the uncertainty, Russell disclosed that there have been no substantial discussions with Mercedes regarding his contract extension. The talented British driver candidly admitted, “To be honest, there hasn’t been any real conversation because at the moment we have more important issues. Namely, making our car faster.” Russell further expressed his commitment to remaining in Formula 1 next year and his desire to continue with Mercedes, echoing Toto Wolff’s alleged intentions.

Surprisingly, without any prompting from journalists, Russell intriguingly mentioned Max Verstappen in his response, insinuating that drivers of Verstappen’s caliber have always been on the radar. He acknowledged the Dutch superstar’s talent, stating, “What is happening is understandable, drivers like Max have always been on the radar, and why shouldn’t they be now? We’re talking about one of the greatest of all time, and I understand that.” Russell remained unfazed, emphasizing his confidence in proving his own worth, citing his track record over his seven-year tenure in Formula 1 and throughout his career.
