Toto Wolf: George Russell F1 was “strong driver” in 2024 compared to Lewis Hamilton

Mercedes Team boss Toto Wolf has kept George Russell Wait throughout the year for a new contract. Now, Russell said that “nothing is going to happen in summer” Following a strong performance in the contract-wise Hungarian GP, it seems that the roles have been reversed.

In that context, it was interesting to note the phrase of a “mid-season report” video Wolf recorded for registered fans of the Mercedes team. A routing video against Montaz’s background, with a curiosity, plowed with Brian Ano-style environment music soundtrack, came close to Wolf because he was ever clearly likely to say that Russell was rapid in his two drivers last year.

This is notable because it is a highly emotional theme for the fan community and is therefore dangerous ground, even if the figures tolerate it to a large extent. While the two drivers won two Grands Prix in the last season, Hamilton’s spa win was in a inherited when his team’s partner was disqualified, which had previously crossed the line on the road.

And, while the point difference was ultimately negligible – Russell defeated Hamilton by 245 points – 223 – The merit picture was rather one -sided moreRussell excluded Hamilton from 5–1 in sprint events and 19–5 in Grands Prix, with a surprising difference, looking at Hamilton’s pre-e-honor on a lap during his career.

“When I look at George, the development he develops has since joined Fast Kido in Formula 1. Williams“Wolf said,” and then the draft is being prepared in Mercedes, clearly with all the great people, Lewis Hamilton,

“And you have already seen that it started to become so strong at pure speed – in terms of results, strong driver. And now has gone to Lewis. Ferrari He took the senior driver slot, and it came completely naturally and he saves.

“He saves, even when not at the car level, he performs better than the car, you can always rely on George. And beyond driving, obviously he is great with our colleagues and does a lot of activities that help us build our brand and build our brand.

“So we can’t wish a better number-a driver.”

Last year, Hamilton’s qualification naturally became a subject of speculation at the more absurd end of the spectrum as the principle of bizarre conspiracy broadcasts to pay attention to their performance deficit. In June, an anonymous email was broadcast claiming that Hamilton was being vandalized.

Later, when Hamilton qualified Russell in Qatar for half a second, the online misuse of the team turned into an icy storm. Wolf replied by describing such people as “stupid”.

It is therefore interesting to consider the subject again – and is important in terms of potentially ongoing constructive dialogues in which Russell is now understood about a strong position, given his performance in this season. Russell’s such unevenly praise in this season has been relatively rare, while Wolf is molesting the ‘Team Verustapen’.

They will be equally – especially Mercedes Media Manager – who will reject this approach Post Hawk ergo Propter Hawk Mistake of correlation with the cause.

Nevertheless, Wolf’s Encomium would have no doubt that George would be happy because he puts his feet somewhere on a beach.
