Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Coulthard said:
Coulthard believes George Russell’s impeccable performance in the Williams F1 team secured him a seat at Mercedes. Disagreeing with the fact that the car guarantees the expectations of the driver, the Scotsman believes the Briton has done the best with the tools he has so far.
Describing the Briton’s task ahead, Coulthard said:
The former McLaren driver believes the Mercedes youngster is capable of developing a championship-winning car, alongside his experienced team-mate Lewis Hamilton. The senior Briton had earlier revealed that he wishes to guide the former Williams driver in his maiden season with the Silver Arrows team.
David Coulthard is impressed with George Russell’s talent
George Russell is the complete package that defines top-class modern grand prix racing talent, according to David Coulthard. The ex-F1 driver believes the Briton’s eloquence and driving skills have lived up to his expectations and he continues to be impressed with the junior Mercedes driver.
Impressed with the former Williams driver’s talent, Coulthard said:
The Briton has had a smooth transition from the Grove-based outfit to the Brackley squad. The multitude of technical issues with the car, however, has masked the young British driver’s true potential. With 21 races left on the calendar, the former GP2 champion is expected to flaunt his prowess once the team has resolved their car issues.
