George Russell has explained why teammate Lewis Hamilton spent much of the early part of F1 2022 carrying out set-up experiments with his car
At the time it was explained that Hamilton had taken lead responsibility of being the team’s ‘guinea pig’ due to his greater experience compared to new teammate Russell, who was embarking on his debut campaign with Mercedes and just his fourth full F1 season.Video of F1 2023 driver line-up - who will underachieve?
“I feel that the biggest thing to take away from this is I was in a happier place with the car from the beginning,” Russell explained. “Whenever there was a development item, it does disrupt your race weekend. That’s why it’s always fair - that’s why the team always do it one week with Lewis, one week with me. And we’re still doing that now, for what it’s worth.”
“I think the reasons for those inconsistencies are because of the number of limitations we’ve had - one within our team, but [also] globally with these regulations," he said.
