George Russell is set to be the senior driver at Mercedes this season onwards following Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari. The former will now be partnered by Andrea Kimi Antonelli, who moved to the team after spending very little time in the Formula 2 championship.
George Russell shared his opinion on Kimi Antonelli as he prepares Mercedes move
Mercedes signed Kimi Antonelli shortly after his run during the Italian Grand Prix's first free practice. The session had ended quite early for the 18-year-old as he crashed into the wall at the Parabolica.
Antonelli has been extremely fast in the junior series. He skipped Formula 3 and was in his debut season in Formula 2 when Mercedes signed him and he is set to join the crew alongside George Russell.
Russell will be the more experienced driver in the team, considering he has been a part of the grid since 2019 and joined the Geman outfit in 2022, claimed that Antonelli currently lacks experience, but he expects him to get on speed as the season progresses.
"I recognize my role as the more experienced driver, I am entering a new chapter in my career. I am ending my beginning and entering the mid-stage. Lewis was 29 when he joined Mercedes and started winning all those championships. Nowadays everyone starts younger and younger — my debut came at 20. But I feel ready now to fulfill roles at the team," George Russell said.
"He is such a fantastic driver. He does not have the experience yet, but I am sure he will be up to speed very quickly, He is young, but his opinion will be just as valid."
Mercedes finished the 2024 season in fourth place in the constructors' championship. The team had a good development trajectory and clinched a total of four race wins.
