George Russell Triumphs in Singapore: A Nostalgic Nod to Hamilton’s Legacy!

In a breathtaking twist of fate, George Russell has etched his name in the annals of Formula 1 history by clinching a sensational victory at the Singapore Grand Prix! But this win was more than just a celebration of speed and skill; it was a heartfelt tribute to his predecessor and racing icon, Lewis Hamilton. The young Mercedes star took to social media to share an unforgettable moment that harkens back to a pivotal year in his career—2018!

Russell vividly recreated Hamilton’s legendary winner’s pose from the 2018 Singapore GP after his dazzling triumph at the Marina Bay Circuit in 2025. In a strikingly similar scene, Russell sat cross-legged on the asphalt, the gleaming trophy beside him, hands resting peacefully in his lap, a victorious smile illuminating his face. However, there was one distinctive difference: while Hamilton famously posed in his fireproof underwear, Russell opted to keep his race suit zipped up!

Why the homage, you ask? “In 2018, I was with Mercedes in Singapore and watched Lewis take an incredible pole position and then win the race,” Russell shared in a heartfelt social media post. “I remember how he took a really cool photo on the track afterwards – and I dreamed back then of one day being in Formula 1 myself.” Those words resonate deeply, encapsulating the dreams of countless aspiring racers around the globe.

At that pivotal moment in 2018, Russell was already on a clear trajectory toward greatness. As a Mercedes junior and reserve driver, he was competing fiercely in Formula 2, ultimately emerging as a title favorite. Just weeks after witnessing Hamilton’s glory, Russell would solidify his own future in Formula 1, being confirmed as a full-time driver for the British team Williams.

Fast forward seven years, and Russell’s triumph is a testament to perseverance and dedication. “Seven years later, it’s a very special moment for me to win here in Singapore and to celebrate this success together with my team,” he expressed, highlighting the emotional weight of his achievement. This victory marks the fifth of his F1 career, adding to his previous wins in Brazil 2022, Austria, and the USA in 2024, and Canada in 2025—all secured with the Mercedes works team, where Russell has been racing full-time since 2022.

Russell’s story is not just about racing; it’s about dreams realized and legacies continued. As he stands on the podium, a torchbearer for Hamilton’s legacy, one thing is clear: George Russell is not just following in the footsteps of giants—he’s forging his own path in the exhilarating world of Formula 1! Stay tuned, motorsport fans—this is just the beginning for Russell, and the excitement is only set to grow!
